Hi mediawar. I tried to reproduce with identical OS version and browser version 
and 
the news show box seemed to display fine.

Do you have firebug installed to see if any error messages are present? 
Anything 
under Tools > Error Console?

Yes, no errors are present either in loading or execution of the script.

I'm seeing the same problem. The URL
http://www.google.com/uds/modules/elements/newsshow/iframe.html?topic=h&rsz=smal
l&format=300x250
gives me a blank frame (only with the "powered by Google News" logo), while the
leaderboard version
(http://www.google.com/uds/modules/elements/newsshow/iframe.html?topic=h&rsz=sma
ll)
displays a news item.

The problem seems to affect only Firefox on OS X. The problem does not appear in
Safari on OS X or Firefox on Windows XP.

I have a similar problem in Firefox 3.6 on Windows Vista. 

The 300x250 NewsShow iframe works fine on IE 7, IE8, and Chrome, but in 
Firefox, it 
loads the leaderboard version into the 300x250 box, giving me a 300x90 
left-hand crop 
of the leaderboard images. Even so, in page source the iframe (2)width and (2) 
height 
parameters still both read properly, i.e., 300x250. Adblock in Firefox is 
disabled. I 
don't see any console errors in Firebug.

Still working on this. 
My page source gives me, for example, just as I've entered it:

<iframe frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" border="0" 
style="border:0;margin:0;width:300px;height:250px;" 
src="http://www.google.com/uds/modules/elements/newsshow/iframe.html?
rsz=large&format=300x250&q=%22Cook%20Inlet%20Beluga%22&element=true" 
scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true"></iframe>

After the page has rendered in Firefox, using Firebug I see the following html:
<div id="ns" style=width: 728px; height: 90px;"> <div><div> id=":0.rootID" 
class="gns-rootgns-780x90 gns-generic-728x90 gns-active-728x90 
gns-generic-activ-
728x90">...
