and the stylesheet:
.newsdiv{
overflow: hidden;
height: 126px;
width: 100%;
padding: 5px;
border: 2px solid black;
display: inline-block;
margin-bottom: 10px;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.picdiv{
width: 220px;
height: 110px;
border: 1px solid #444;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
background-size: 382px 120px;
float: left;
}
.titlediv{
height: 20px;
text-align: center;
}
.textdiv{
overflow: hidden;
margin-top: 8px;
height: 70px;
text-align: center;
}
.linksdiv{
font-size: 8pt;
text-align: center;
height: 10px;
}
.statsdiv{
font-size: 7pt;
text-align: right;
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
}
Any ideas of how to do this? Thanks!

Answer 1

You need float here
.statsdiv {
font-size: 7pt;
text-align: right;
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
float: right; /* Add this */
}
May be there will be more cleaner solution but you can try this for now
.linksdiv > a{
margin-left:12%;
}
Updated Demo

Answer 2

You can use the position: absolute; on your .statsdiv and position:relative; on .linksdiv to achieve what you want. I guess using float will be too much for this.
Updated CSS(modified classes only):
.linksdiv{
font-size: 8pt;
text-align: center;
height: 10px;
position: relative; /*added*/
}
.statsdiv{
font-size: 7pt;
/* text-align: right; not required */
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
position: absolute; /*added*/
right: -0.5%; /*added*/
}

Answer 3

Consider this working css. Here is Demo
.statsdiv {
font-size: 7pt;
text-align: right;
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
float: right;/*added*/
}

Answer 4

Add this to your .statsdiv css
float:right;
here is the fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/cc68d/
Edit :- Although this works, as pointed out by you , it does not align Read More[..] in center. Actually the issue is with the design part. I will not go into details. You can correct this by adding style="padding-left:100px;" to your ReadMore[..] <a> tag attribute.
as shown here http://jsfiddle.net/cc68d/1/

Answer 5

Replace your total css code, You need float on the class .statsdiv
Your total modified code is:
.newsdiv{
overflow: hidden;
height: 126px;
width: 100%;
padding: 5px;
border: 2px solid black;
display: inline-block;
margin-bottom: 10px;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.picdiv{
width: 220px;
height: 110px;
border: 1px solid #444;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
background-size: 382px 120px;
float: left;
}
.titlediv{
height: 20px;
text-align: center;
}
.textdiv{
overflow: hidden;
margin-top: 8px;
height: 70px;
text-align: center;
}
.linksdiv{
font-size: 8pt;
text-align: center;
height: 10px;
}
.statsdiv {
font-size: 7pt;
text-align: right;
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
float: right; /* Add this */
}

Answer 6

You could make your div go out of the flow making its position absolute :
.statsdiv{
font-size: 7pt;
text-align: right;
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
position: absolute;
align: right;
padding: 0 15px;
width: 96%;
left: 0;
}
Needs a little tuning to make it right in all definitions though...

Answer 7

Add a third div with a width of how ever wide you need it with no content between them - a place holder div ...remember to float right , text align and a margin as well.
