| | English translation:news in brief | Explanation:
'news in brief' (singular), 'news briefs' (plural) I understand this to be the highlights of current events and not a news story in detail. Often presented in a short or summary form, 'news briefs' present current events without all the details. In journalism jargon, we sometimes just call this NIB, news in brief. I think the idea in the question is to indicate information gleaned from a prefunctory (superficial) look at news, rather than an in depth study of a longer piece of journalism. Because 'briefs' are often headlines taken from various sources i.e. various news agencies, there is the idea that the news of others' is echoed. |

Ingannato dalla tua domanda postata al singolare, ma in realtà ti serve al plurale nel contesto. :)
