--- Comment #2 from Andriy Gapon <avg@FreeBSD.org> ---
Maybe in the past people thought that every BSD (or Unix) machine would run=
 a
news (as in NNTP) server. E.g., a small repertoire of syslog facilities
includes news as well.
But I think that we never had a news server in the base.
And I expect that all "third-party" news server have their own stuff for
periodic tasks.

So, it should be fine to purge that periodic entry.
