Sorry you are having such a time of it. No, to uninstall the news module you go to system admin/modules and go to the "News" module and remove the checkmark next too it. Then click on submit. Next time you go into the page an uninstall icon will appear next to the News module. Did you try updating the News module after you uploaded the new files using the update icon?
I dont know if this will solve your problem, it looks like your default template is damaged, may be just the news part though.
