Looks like you have problems with your word table. This problem has been reported before by people not using the usenet hack. The SQL that runs makes it impossible to try to insert a a duplicate key so this implies the table is somehow corrupt.

Your best bet would be to re-index. If you have a large board and that's not an option, then either;

1) Simply delete those words from the word table.
2) turn off the index option for the news for a single pull.
