I've not used the newswire module. Using the taxonomy block module (
https://en.wiki.aktivix.org/IMC-York/Drupal#taxonomy_block ) to create a
newswire block instead. I think this is a common way of doing this.
However...

But people logged in do post newswire stories. It is not only anonymous
people who post newswire stories.

I'm not sure I understand this. I assume it is something specific about
the module.

I don't know where the problem arises but this is a *very* important bit
of code. It calls the hook for all other modules to be able to change
what happens on insert of a node.
http://api.drupal.org/api/4.7/function/hook_insert
Deleting it will break any modules that require anything additional done
on insert.
