The comment says that the news items starts here, so I expect the marker 
to be available here. Anything before this is for the entire list, not 
for individual news items

You want only one news item, so you can make an HTML template which has 
all the HTML within the block for the item itself and just set the 
templateFile property in Typoscript to use this template here.
