  var news = ZincService.NewsService.GetNewsForId(id);
  var allNewsComments = ZincService.NewsService.GetAllNewsCommentsForId(id, page.GetValueOrDefault(1), 10);
  var currentUser = ZincService.GetUserForId(CurrentUser.UserId);

  if (news == null || news.PublishingState != PublishingState.Live)
    return RedirectToAction("NotFound");

  if (allNewsComments != null)
  {
    var user = ZincService.GetUserForId(currentUser.UserId);
    if (user == null || user.Customer.CustomerId != CurrentCustomer.CustomerId)
      return DataNotFound();

    ViewBag.Avatar = user.UserImage;
    ViewBag.UserName = user.Firstname + "   " + user.Surname;
    NewsCommentsViewModel model = (NewsCommentsViewModel)SetNewsArticleViewModel(news, new NewsCommentsViewModel());
    foreach (var newsItem in allNewsComments.NewsComments)
    {
      model.Results = allNewsComments;
      model.PageSize = 10;
      model.CurrentPage = page.GetValueOrDefault(1);
    }
    return View(model);
  }
  else
  {
    return View(SetNewsArticleViewModel(news,null));
  }
}

 [NonAction]
private NewsArticleViewModel SetNewsArticleViewModel(Entities.News.News news, NewsArticleViewModel viewModel)
{
  viewModel.News = news;
  viewModel.IsFavourite = ZincService.FavouriteService.IsFavouriteForUser(CurrentUser.UserId, news); 
  viewModel.DownloadAttachments = news.NewsAttachments.Where(x =>
    Core.FileFormat.FileFormatHelper.GetFileFormatType(x.FileExtension) == Core.FileFormat.FileFormatType.Excel ||
    Core.FileFormat.FileFormatHelper.GetFileFormatType(x.FileExtension) == Core.FileFormat.FileFormatType.PDF ||
    Core.FileFormat.FileFormatHelper.GetFileFormatType(x.FileExtension) == Core.FileFormat.FileFormatType.PowerPoint ||
    Core.FileFormat.FileFormatHelper.GetFileFormatType(x.FileExtension) == Core.FileFormat.FileFormatType.Word);

  viewModel.EmbedAttachments = news.NewsAttachments.Where(x =>
    Core.FileFormat.FileFormatHelper.GetFileFormatType(x.FileExtension) == Core.FileFormat.FileFormatType.Video);

  return viewModel;
}

i get errors on the newsItem parts stating that it does not exist in the current context. can some one help me right please?

As i inferred from code you posted, problem is with you'r usage of Model.you are trying to use model properties,but you are not doing it correctly.try following :

<%
      Model.CommentDate
     %>

instead of

<%: newsItem.CommentDate %>  //get error here
