Any news?

How would you ask '(Have you/is there) any news regarding insert subject here'?
In the past I have written '¿Hay algo de noticias sobre/de...?'
If this is correct, can it be shortened as it can in English to '¿Algo de noticias de/sobre...?'
Gracious...

That sounds a little odd.
.
You can ask: ¿Hay alguna novedad de/sobre........?
or ¿Hay alguna noticia de/sobre.........?

Thanks, I was never told that it was correct, just made it up. What sounds more natural, novedad o noticia? - afowen, Sep 2, 2011
And, can I omit the 'hay', as one can in English? I'm suspecting que no... - afowen, Sep 2, 2011
Both are interchangeable. To me, novedad is more natural, but may be a local thing. - 00e657d4, Sep 3, 2011

" qué novedades" or "qué noticias" works well in my part of the world.

Is that not though 'what news' as distinct to 'any news', inferring that you are expecting that there is something to report? - afowen, Sep 2, 2011
