Not really.  The instructions for setting up NNTP access are posted 
there.  Used to be that there were emails sent out, or ftp sites with 
something similar to web pages that had such before the web page invention.

I don't know that TWC my current provider had a News server since I 
moved to them.  Cox Cable killed off Usenet before 2003.  Prior to that 
it had been outsourced.
