The first place to check should be the ORGANIZATION environment
variable; this, I believe, is standard to UNIX news readers.

To prove I'm not a slacker:

    /* add Organization: */
    char * org;

    strcpy(org,getenv("ORGANIZATION"));

    if(!(org[0] == '\0')) {
        fprintf(fd, "Organization: %s", org);
    }
    else { FILE *fp;
      if (fp = fopen("/etc/organization", "r")) {
         if (fgets(user_input, sizeof(user_input), fp) != NULL)
        fprintf(fd, "Organization: %s", user_input);
         fclose(fp);
      }
    }

Now, whether you actually want to *use* my code is something else
altogether...
