Does it help to remove the NEWS after you've created NEWS.md in the
root directory of your package? In theory, NEWS.md takes precedence
over everything except inst/NEWS.Rd, but maybe that's not the case when
checking the package.

For the record, both the plain text format R expects in the NEWS file
and the Markdown format for NEWS.md are described in help(news).
