<style type="text/css">
	<!--
	.newsitem {
font: 7pt arial, sans-serif;
font-weight: italic;
background: transparent;
	}
	-->
</style>

Note that you can change the font size by changing the following line in the CSS code: 

font: 9pt arial, sans-serif;
Likewise, you can also change the other variables, such as font-weight, background color, etc.
