       Media
          Blog
             -a blogentry

    To get the children of a particular document type the following will work ..but you willhave to replace Textpages with the parent document type alias of area you wish to collect ie Blog

    <ul>
        @foreach (var item in @Model.Textpages.Where("Visible").OrderBy("createDate"))
        {
        <li><a href="@item.Url">@item.Name</a></li>
    }
    </ul>

    Or are you asking to collect and order both news and blog item in the same list ?

    You can do it like so: 

    @{
    //Get the rootnode of the website
        var siteRoot = Model.AncestorOrSelf(1);
        //From that node on look at all of it's descendants and find the ones with nodetype blog or news
    var updates = siteRoot.Descendants().Where("NodeTypeAlias == \"BlogPost\" || NodeTypeAlias == \"NewsItem\"").OrderBy("CreateDate");
}
//List your nodes 
@foreach(var item in updates)
{
    @item.Name<br />    
}
