    <xsl:for-each select="umbraco.library:GetXmlAll()//MyNewsItemDocType">
       <xsl:sort select="@updateDate" order="descending"/>
        <!-- display news items here -->
    </xsl:for-each>

    This will iterate all news item doctypes from across the site, sorted by last updated, with most recent first.

    If there is a "News Date" field on your doctype you can obviously use that instead of @updateDate.

    Here is a slight variation to only display 5 most recent items (useful on home pages for example):

    <xsl:for-each select="umbraco.library:GetXmlAll()//MyNewsItemDocType">
        <xsl:sort select="@updateDate" order="descending"/>
    <xsl:if test="position() &lt; 5">
            <!-- display news items here -->
    </xsl:if>
    </xsl:for-each>
