Hooks work for an entire installation.

The fastest and easiest solution for me would be to use a Typoscript 
CONTENT object to get the records from the database and instead of 
fiddling with the tt_news template and configuration for such a list I 
would simply use the renderObj of the CONTENT object to build the actual 
list and links.

Since you are already into programming hooks setting up a CONTENT object 
would take you about an hour or so.

If you need to set it up as a content element on a page, use an 
extension such as typoscriptce [1].

(General remark: it is truly amazing how much you can do with Typoscript!)
