Since you have a lack of knowledge in the scripting language. I would suggest looking into a CMS(Drupal or e107). Both of those will work for what you are looking to do. However, I think you would be better off with e107 in this case. It comes stock with some of the features you are looking for. It has a very nice and clean news section that can be used as a blog and either put on the front page or a page of its own. This also has the ability to let your users submit news articles to your site. with the ability to accept or deny each article before it gets posted live. You can use a number of chat plugins for your chat section but, I think you would be suited better to use a forum for this instead as the chances of enough people being online at the same time to utilize the chat would take a while to develop.
