I am working in the company, where we recently had the similar situation, so we had to make a decision for building news site. Our team experience was Drupal, and we are not quite happy about its complexity and OOP-less. The solution which we choice was Diem. Mostly because of ease for development (admin interface and inline editing are on place), good documentation, fairy large community. Media management is one of the thing we might be able to extend Diem with help of symfony plugins (we are not quite there yet).
