Community Networking Newspaper - Wordpress Multi, Buddypress

I am looking to create a Community Newspaper Network, using Wordpress Multisite and Buddypress as the integrated forum/social network.

An example site is at [url removed, login to view] - [url removed, login to view]

The idea is that we have a main page which pulls in the news/articles from several other newspaper / magazine / blog sites on the network , which have been compiled by local people logging in and adding their hyper-local news and events etc, some people will have permission to publish immediately, others may need moderation (eg new users) and also people or groups/ clubs may have their own specialist interest blogs etc on the network, that feed into the main site.

The means for people to post to the sites needs to be easy to do, either via a form, or WYSIWYG front end.

From my understanding, this would be a relatively normal wordpress multisite setup, with each "local " page having a newspaper style theme

events, classifieds, adverts, jobs, car sales, dating etc for each local site could all be network shared, or again localised with a compilation into the main one

The buddypress element would enable the social networking amongst subscribers and groups - allowing discussions, comments, messaging etc

some similar sites using wordpress / buddypress are :

[url removed, login to view]

[url removed, login to view]

[url removed, login to view]

[url removed, login to view]

[url removed, login to view]

but, the [url removed, login to view] or [url removed, login to view] is closest to what I want, except with the combined front page pulling the info in.

I see this project work as mainly getting the settings correct on the Multisite and Buddypress, using themes - eg from a theme provider :

examples of good news themes -

[url removed, login to view]

[url removed, login to view]

I'd also like a workbook / detail of how to set up, what settings used, which bits link, any extra code etc so that I can do this myself again for another community project. Custom Post Types and Custom Taxonomies may be a way to do some of this project

All pages and posts need to be able to be shared on social networks etc - probably just a plugin also ability to sign in, link etc from facebook etc

"Headlines" should auto tweet and post to facebook etc

Content will include videos, pictures, links etc

ability to run adverts, affiliate links etc to help finance this ongoing ...

mobile friendly

Initially all sample content to set this up can be replicated from any other newspaper site or lorum ipsummed etc, but made clear as to how it fits into categories etc This is what I have been having difficulty with, as any themes don't come with example content, and the wordpress dummy content doesn't help.

I have hosting already, and the freelancer can use the cpanel to set up. I already use wordpress, but this will be my first multisite and buddypress, hence the need to help set up. An example of one of my previous sites is [url removed, login to view],

there may be a couple of other details I've missed, but I think you get the genral idea enough to be able to bid on this.
