more info I see now I should have provided more background. This is about a newspaper running long features. I'm not sure how timeless could really fit in here though.

timeless feature stories

Intemporelles here means the reports are not related to current events.
Other possibilities: timeless reports.

Colin, timeless fits in because the features are about not news-related subjects, like this one in today\'s New York Times about how a growing Chinese middle class is changing life in Toronto (http://www.nytimes.com/2002/03/21/international/americas/21T... There\'s no \"news\" handle, but these kind of stories take a long time to research. They are timeless, because you could run them today, or six months, or a year from now (which counts as timeless in a news context).

on-going in depth news coverage

The notion of "intemporel" translates well here as on-going. Points of interest that do not fade over time.
