If that sort of transmission is permitted in one's country, it should present little problem. Broadcasting news of interest to the amateur community at large is sometimes permitted. I suppose there could be some question whether reception of stations in another service is newsworthy to hams in general. Clearly, though, it would not constitute a QSO.
