What do sites use for their news?

Whenever you click read more, comments, etc...

I'm curious to know what they use, a PHP News program or something? What are some good ones? Or custom CMS? Because I've been trying to get this on my page for a while... and more specifically, a reliable one that's very customizable.

Requirements for CMS I am looking for:

-coded in PHP, database SQL (if it is needed)
-normal to fast, or even very fast speed. please, no slow cms's
-categorize news, such as Sports, Finance, etc.
-ability to edit XHTML/CSS template
-ability to easily post news
-on each news, easy addition of an image, and X number of views *AND* comments
-ability to post comments

A very simple, yet nicely coded one is called CuteNews.. http://cutephp.com/

Has a nice administration backend which allows for multiple users with different permissions and such. Quick and easy setup, and simple to integrate to an existing page layout. Theres a ton of news scripts out there, you can find a lot more at hotscripts.com

Ok. I've gone through a couple of the sites built using that, and I was wondering if it had news categories, and more importantly, if it had the option of X number of Views?
