Somewhat similar to that but with non-archived news articles.

I don't know if this is what you want, but tt_news has an archive  
mode which can be set to work over different periods, including  
years. It also provides an archive menu, which allows you to produce  
a list of years and get the relevant news when clicking on a given year.
