For your information, it is possible to separately configure multiple tt_news object while 
using CE. By that i mean that you can create multiple CE of type news and than
specify different ts for each CE you created. You only have to use a RECORDS object

and it will give you someting like this:

lib.ttnewsobj1 = RECORDS
lib.ttnewsobj1{
	source = 1 //this is the id of your CE which is a news
	table = tt_content
	conf.tt_content < plugin.tt_news
	conf.tt_content{
		your specific tsconf
	}

}

lib.ttnewsobj2 = RECORDS
lib.ttnewsobj2{
	source = 2 //this is the id of your CE which is a news
	table = tt_content
	conf.tt_content < plugin.tt_news
	conf.tt_content{
		your specific tsconf
	}

}
