I think this isn't what you expected, but:
- I don't like the "Weekly News" font, it looks like you resized the height;
- I know this is a repeat of my design and choice when I made the 468x60 
banners for the wiki, but maybe "fedora" should be replaced with the 
wordmark with the correct typeface (I made the choice back then because 
I wanted more text on the same font face and the official font is not free);
- maybe some play with colors on the text, a drop shadow and some 
texture for background?
- this is my favorite style and may not be the best thing: I like when 
parts of the subject (the newspaper here) get out of the image.
