Outlook uses Outlook Express as newsreader.

Because is an e-mail client that supports POP3, IMAP, SMTP, and HTTPmail
(via WebDAV) *and* it supports NNTP (network news transfer protocol) for
newsgroups. Outlook doesn't have NNTP support. If a program doesn't
support a protocol, well, you don't get that support. Newsgroups are
not considered a corporate task and Outlook is geared towards corporate
customers, not personal end-users as is Outlook Express.
