I do like the idea but unfortunately i won't be able to give you much help with the project. It's a long way out of my range of skills. The only advice i can pass on would be what i have seen with your logo. As a first impression and the link to your project it just looks very cartoonish to be tied with a site called major news. I would find it hard to take a news site seriously as a source if this was the image portrayed to the customers.

I'm not trying to be harsh just saying maybe something more hard line and striking might be a better fit.
