Repost News Post
I'd love to see the ability to repost a news post after it has been updated. You can update a page that has been shared as news, but you can't "republish" it so that it shows as a recent item in the...
News shows up based on First Published Date, a field that you can't edit in the UI. But, one simple thing you can do is go to the news article you want to re-publish and select +New > Copy of this page. Make a few updates (or not) to make it something truly new and then publish as a new article.
Actually if I copy a news post page that has ever been published once, the "first published" date is copied over to the new copy of the page so it sorts in the same order so this won't work. You can do as others have suggested and edit each news webpart manually but life is too short to do this if you have news surfaced in lots of places. Its hard to imagine such basic functionality is virtually impossible without a bunch of work-arounds.
