News ticker, how to make one?

Post by WithHisStripes »

Heya,
I need to include a news ticker on my website http://www.firstcause.org/curt but I've never done one before. I need it to scroll up/down and take news articles from somewhere else, ie fox, cnn, etc... can anyone help me out?

-Thanks! Spence
