Shouldn't that be ###GENERIC_CREATED_BY###?

You should be able to use the RECORDS object with cruser_id for source:

plugin.tt_news.genericmarkers {
   data = cruser_id
   creator = RECORDS
   creator {
     source.field = generic_cruser_id
     tables = be_users
     conf.be_users = TEXT
     conf.be_users.field = realName
   }
}
