Unless you are using the "gateway to news" functions in mailman, this cron entry can be commented out or removed. Not sure why you are getting the error, but commenting out the cron entry is a quick fix :-)

Your "cron" job on mail /usr/local/bin/python -S /export/home/mailman//cron/gate_news
produced the following output:
