Allowing every one to query a table ?

[Klashma]

Hello, I am currently trying to figure out how to allow every users that connect to my 
database to do a select on the table news under database admin.  I tried doing grant 
select on admin.news to '%' but if seems to have failed.  

Does anyone know how to allow anyone to do a select * from admin.news without allowing 
them to browse the whole admin database?  

ie select * from admin.news; would work
select * from admin.tel; would NOT work

Thanks in advance.

Klashma.
