Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities! After reading your post, I understand you are looking for ways to customize the News app. I know how convenient it is to have the stories most important to you readily accessible, and would be happy to help!
To get started, I would recommend checking out the following article.

I would suggest looking specifically at the "Customize For You" section, which helps you add topics and channels that interest you in a one-stop shop. Information and instructions are as follows:
Customize For You
Add the topics and channels that interest you from the Explore section to your Favorites. This helps News decide what type of stories to show you in For You.
To see a list of the channels and topics that you follow, tap Favorites. If you subscribe to a channel, there’s a separate section in Favorites for your subscriptions. You can also sort Favorites by name, recently visited, or most visited. Just tap Favorites at the top of the screen, then choose how you want them sorted.
