SSH Tunneling

[stupidmail4me <stupidmail4me_(_at_)_yahoo_(_dot_)_com>]

I have access to a news server at home through my ISP.
The only authentification they do is network location,
meaning you have to be in their network to access
their news servers.

I'm at a remote location which doesn't have any access
to a news server. I think I can create a SSH tunnel
from the remote location to my home, and access my
ISP's news servers using this tunnel.

Am I right or crazy? If I'm right, how do I do it?
Here's my idea:
        ----------  
        |Internet|  ---------
        |********|  |Home   |
remote->|*tunnel*|->|Network|->news server
        |********|  ---------
        ----------
