Thinking about this, I can do something that pushes the complexity back to you but would solve the problem.
When you schedule a news download, calibre lets you add extra tags to the news source that will be applied to every book. My thought is that you could add a special tag that tells CC how long news books downloaded by this source should remain on the device. Possible example: cc_delete_after_N where N is the number of days for this news source.
CC would process the news normally using the "master" days number. No book would be deleted if it is younger than this value. CC would then check for the existence of a tag beginning with "cc_delete_after_". If CC finds such a tag it would strip the number off the end and delete the book only if that many days (actually (number * 24) hours) had passed.
