yes you have to include the static template rating (tt_rating) in your 
main template. Then on the single_view of your tt_news you should see 
the rating under/beside the news title. If you want to put the rating
somewhere else eg. on the list view you have to adapt the typoscript

#Add the rating form after the title
plugin.tt_news.displaySingle.title_stdWrap {
         postCObject < temp.rating
         innerWrap = <h1>|</h1>
}
