Financial News on Website?

My client want to display financial news on website. What is the best way of doing this (paid and free methods considered)?

Ok, this is how I would do it. Find a financial news RSS feed. I found one quite quickly on cnn.com, but I'm sure there are tons of others out there.

Now all you need is a PHP script that parses the RSS feed automatically into your DB. Search on google for this, sure there are lots of tutorials.
