The recipie looks like this:

# various news lists
:0:
* 
^(TO_|From:).*(announce|news|dot-stories|editors(_at_)eff\(_dot_)org|kcdistrib).*
lists/news

More likely you want
* (^TO_|^From:[         
])(announce|news|dot-stories|editors)@(eff\.org|kcdistrib)

The macro is "^TO_", not "TO_". The ^ needs to be inside the parens for it to
be expanded. Addeding wildcards inside the expression after that is redundant,
since that's already included in the ^TO_ macro, and wildcards at the END of
an expresion in procmail are unneccesary. Note that the brackets contain a
literal space and tab.
