Could anyone help me....

Thanks alot!!

I think it is a UITableView, where the first cell is customized in order to contain the large image. Then, they might be using a UIScrollView as the view for the first section, or a custom header view for the whole table - depends if that top stories "scroller" scrolls together with the rest of the talbe.

The rest is a "traditional" combination of a tab bar and a navigation controller.
