Any way to have company news on the front page of portal?

I would like to give our CEO and avenue to post news, stats, and other information right when staff members log into the Zoho portal. I also need to make sure that contractors, who log into Zoho, only see the stories, news, stats and etc. they are authorized to see.

Is "Desktop" the application I should be looking at? If so, how do I provide a WYSIWIG to our CEO, so he can do the editing, image insertion and such without touching any code?
