Hello brother,
I am just confused as which one is better or is there any other MOD also the feature what I want.
I need a MOD to which the users have subscribed can read the news in my forum itself only and not on the originated site from where the actual news is coming from.
Like for example If any of the MOD RSS Atom, NewsFeed or any other functions like the news is coming from bbc.com from showing and read on my forum only. The users don't need to go to the original site from where the news is coming.
Does any of the above MODs functions like that  or any other MOD |

I don't think you're going to be able to find a MOD that posts entire news articles in your forum so that your members don't have to visit the originating site. That would be a copyright infringement...
We have the FIND - Forum Integrated News Delivery - Input MOD installed here and I really like it. If you are not subscribed to any of the newsfeed groups, you can do so in Usergroups. If you join the Newsfeeds... group, it will display all the newsfeed forums. Otherwise, you can pick and choose which newsfeeds you want to subscribe to by joining each group individually...
I really don't have any experience with any of the other MODs that you mentioned so I can't even begin to tell you the differences and pros and cons of each...

Yes, I think the FIND - Forum Integrated News Delivery - Input MOD is a good MOD. I don't know of any that are any better...

| I'm curious do you have to set it up like here under a newsgroup forum or could you set it up so that under say.... a parenting forum you could have a feed and under a television forum you could have an entertainment feed? |

You can set it up any way you want. I created the newsfeed forums, which are just regular forums that are assigned to the Newsfeed category. You can direct your newsfeeds to any forum you want...
