Perhaps a better way to do this is to put something in your precmd
hooks so that the /etc/motd is shown when it has changed?  E.g.,

  latest_motd() {
    if [[ /etc/motd -nt ~/.last_motd ]]
    then
      cp --preserve=timestamps /etc/motd ~/.last_motd
      cat ~/.last_motd
    fi
  }
  add-zsh-hook precmd latest_motd
