Submitting a site to Google news is actually very simple. You go to this page and submit your site. The things that are important are covered in Google's News Publisher Help. There are a bunch of technical requirements. It sounds very complicated, but it is actually pretty simple.

Here are the exact requirements, directly from Google:

We typically include sites in Google News that:

• Have news content reporting on recent events -- please note that we don't include informational and how-to articles, classified ads, job postings, fictitious content, event announcements, advice columns or adult content;
• have content that is original to the site;
• are written and maintained by a clear organization, one that has multiple writers and editors with accessible contact information;
• don't solely promote their own activities or products;
• don't violate Google's quality guidelines

Quality guidelines - basic principles

• Make pages primarily for users, not for search engines. Don't deceive your users or present different content to search engines than you display to users, which is commonly referred to as "cloaking."
• Avoid tricks intended to improve search engine rankings. A good rule of thumb is whether you'd feel comfortable explaining what you've done to a website that competes with you. Another useful test is to ask, "Does this help my users? Would I do this if search engines didn't exist?"
• Don't participate in link schemes designed to increase your site's ranking or PageRank. In particular, avoid links to web spammers or "bad neighborhoods" on the web, as your own ranking may be affected adversely by those links.
• Don't use unauthorized computer programs to submit pages, check rankings, etc. Such programs consume computing resources and violate our Terms of Service. Google does not recommend the use of products such as WebPosition Gold™ that send automatic or programmatic queries to Google.
