Was hoping [webmasterworld.com] for the same HughMungus,

I think Google wants to heavily increase its frequent and deep spidering first.

If my PR2 site adds a new page with a new original story, which is copied by a PR8 site adding a new page.

Which page will turn up on a search for that content limited to the last week?

Frequent spidering is the key, which is why they limit it to Google News IMO.
A newspaper can copy original content as well without sourcing, but at least you know your searching within a limited set of specific type pages.
