That's only feasible in web forums, not Usenet.  Usenet is more like 
email -- once you post the message, it's on its way to all the other 
systems, so it's too late to edit it.

There used to be a time when you could cancel and/or supersede usenet
messages.  Some people even used newsreaders that supported the
functionality, instead of silly web interfaces.

These days, you can probably still find a client that will let you
send out cancels or supersedes, but you can't expect news servers
anywhere to honour them.  Thank you, spammers.  (You never could be
sure that a cancel/supersede would work everywhere of course, but
chances of them working somewhere, enough places to be useful, used to
be nonzero.)

The news server of my ISP and my news client do honor them, so if I'm
fast enough to cancel an ill conceived post, I win :-)
