It may be the easiest, but the way you did it opens the door to far more 
variants, which are better for referencing. You may want to take a look 
at that article:

That may be useful in a case other than tt_news, but when using:

plugin.tt_news {
   substitutePagetitle = 1
}


the title of the news is loaded in $GLOBALS['TSFE']->page['title'] which 
you can retrieve by TS as shown in my example:

...data = TSFE:page|title

Guido's method is correct and useful, but queries the database which is 
unnecessary in this case.

Cheers
