Perhaps a shorter time (1 week-6 months) to see if it is still relevant
and new or something that should be converted to a normal page -
feature, event history, customer story - rather than a news item if the
information is still useful or interesting from a history POV.
A bit of judgment may be required - a news item about a new release may
still be newsworthy for a long time if there has not been a release
since then.
A conference announcement looks pretty dated a week after the conference
takes place and needs rewriting immediately if only to change the tense
of the verbs.
Nothing costs credibility faster than a site that has "news" announcing
(or worse- "a call for speakers for") a conference that took place 3
months ago.
It hints that the community has been inactive since then.
Having said that, I had better go look at my site again!!!
