News Content Management System

Hiya, I don't know whether this has been asked before (I did search but I didn't find much) and this is proberly a really noobish question. But I am looking into coding a CMS for my site. Basically I would like to create a news CMS that is just news. Nothing fancy at all, I would just like to have an admin page where you can log in, then the news add form appear when you have logged in. Then there are a couple of fields on the form: Title, date (automatic if possible), Category, Source, then the news it self using a WYSIWYG (Short news to be shown on the homepage and long news for when they click on the "read more" link.) Then a submit and reset button.

When they press submit I would like the short news and to appear on the homepage along with - category, title, date and remore link in this format:

Title
Category - Date
News
Read more

Is there any really good tutorial/book/website which will tell me how to do this?

Thanks, Jj
