Another way (that I choosed at last) is setting up config.MP_defaults TS 
property.

This saves other tt_news plugin instance configurations.

I try to explain my problem:

I have about 40 related-domains on the same typo3 installation that 
share a single "news subtree". This subtree consists of 4 pages. On the 
first root page there is a tt_news LIST instance, and on the sibilings 
there are ARCHIVE SEARCH and SINGLE instances, respectively.

Every homepage mounts (by a sibling MountPoint page) the subtree and has 
an INSERT RECORD cObj that includes a LATEST instance.

So every domain points to the same structure. This saves a lot of 
creation and maintenance time, considered that the number of domains 
will increase to 100 and more.

The MP_defaults solution allows other ad-hoc tt_news LATEST instances 
(that refers to other news repositories) to work together with the main 
LATEST instance.

On the other hand, the "addParams" solution has the problem of setting 
the MP var to ALL tt_news instances on the same (home)page and also 
requires an extension template to unset it on the mounted subtree.
