Fusion News Features

What is Fusion News?

Fusion News Management System is a powerful and easy to use news management script. Setting up Fusion News, from uploading to being able to post a news article, takes less than 10 minutes. From there, customization and integration of news into your website requires only a few lines of code being inserted into your website's HTML. Features such as the commenting system and 'tell a friend' page will allow website visitors to interact with each other to discuss the news at hand.
