Although spam.el might be too heavyweight for something like this, a
spam/ham summary exit processor ("reporter"?) that can use the
X-Report-Spam header would work.  Then the spam-marked messages could
be batch-processed as described above, then copied (not moved!) if
spam-process-destination is set for the newsgroup.

This would require some changes to spam.el, since it has been used
only with mail groups, so it's not a trivial addition.
