it is a DNS issue,
most of the time www.newstoday.com is actually an alias to newstoday.combut if you want www.newstoday.com could be Site A. and newstoday.com could be Site B. which is completely different.
but because most people dont understand that and if you tried to pass out your URL as newstoday.com there is a 90% chance that someone will add www. to the beginning just because they dont know any-better and everything they know about the web says that WWW. MUST exist.
this is a HUGE irritation of mine especially when having people view a test site that is say at beta.whatever.com
they always want to type in www.beta.whatever.com
or www.10.0.1.200 when going to an IP address.
so annoying
but anyways to fix your issue just add an alias or CNAME to point to your host domain
