Most, although not all, verbs are regular, which means they follow predictable conjugation patterns depending on whether the infinitive ends in -are, -ere, or -ire.

Leggere is a regular -ere verb.
Nel is the compound of in+il (http://italian.about.com/library/fare/blfare153a.htm); it would be fine to say "leggo nel giornale" if you're reading a specific news in the newspaper, but that would require a direct object.
