[thelist] Press release - Database appropriate?

I manage my city's website and have to deal with manually recieving,
formatting and posting a great deal of press releases from various
departments.

I want all the press releases to follow a templated format and would prefer
to allow the various departments to file their press releases electronically
without my having to be involved.

Considering the amount of text in an average press release, would this be a
proper and effective place to use a database to store them by means of form
submission?

Or is there some other way I'm overlooking, that would take a form
submission and output an HTML page?
