How to implement pagination along with sorting results in Laravel

I'm pretty new to Laravel, and still exploring it's features and possibilities, and I've came across a strange issue that I don't quite understand.

First of all, I'm using Laravel 5.0 and I'm trying to make pagination of results that came from model alongside with sorting them.

Here is the code that works, but without sorting:

News::paginate(5);

And here is what I need, but doesn't work:

News::paginate(5)->orderByDesc('published_at');

I've tried doing it like so:

News::all()->sortByDesc('published_at')->paginate(5);

But then, when I call render() method inside view it throws error. I would like to use model's approach since it's handy and few more things depend on it, and not query builder method. Also, would like, if possible to avoid manual or any kind of custom pagination. Thanks
