No. The problem is that CC doesn't know that "news book B" is a later edition of "news book A". It also doesn't know if you have read the previous "book".

Note that calibre can optionally delete the book when it is sent to the first device, in effect pushing management of the news articles to the device. People have asked that calibre be able to delete old news on a device, a request that Kovid has consistently turned down for reasons I fully understand. Also, calibre can delete news older than "N" days, but this has no effect on news sent to a device.

You can select "News" in the grouping drawer to see what is on the device, then delete the ones you do not want from book details.
What I actually do is open an app named ES File Explorer, and go to the Calibre_Companion\News folder and manually delete yesterdays files. Then I go back to the Calibre Companion app and delete 'books with missing files' from the settings menu.
