This made me think that there is something wrong with tt_news in this 
regard, so I looked in the source code.

The current code has the following behaviour:
- if the 'links' field is filled and (TEXT_LINKS or NEWS_LINKS is used 
as a marker):
1. split links_stdWrap.wrap on the '|'
2. format the links using TypoScript (TS) linksItem_stdWrap
3. replace the marker ###TEXT_LINKS### with the first part of 
links_stdWrap.wrap + the localized label "textLinks" formatted with TS 
linksHeader_stdWrap
4. replace the marker ###NEWS_LINKS### with the formatted links + the 
last part of links_stdWrap.wrap

I suspect that you don't use the marker ###TEXT_LINKS### in your 
template. This will not only remove the header, but also the opening 
part of links_stdWrap.wrap.

To fix it you could put the ###TEXT_LINKS### marker back (before 
###NEWS_LINKS### and empty the contents of that marker:
linksHeader_stdWrap >
_LOCAL_LANG.default.textLinks =
# also empty label for Dutch (expand for other languages you need)
_LOCAL_LANG.nl.textLinks =

The way this is handled in the code is rather strange, but I think it 
will be hard to find a solution which is also backwards compatible.
