Hmm, I suppose it won't be.

Seems to me this News model should be exclusively for getting data from Google 
News. If you also want to have the data locally in your own database, then you 
might need a separate model for that. After all, you may not want to have the 
same fields in your database as Google returns in their RSS. You may want to 
track additional items, or may not care to store about some of the data they 
send back.

The two models could certainly talk to one another, e.g. when you fetch 
something from the (Google News) News model, it could insert or update data in 
your database news model. Or you could turn it around, and make your database 
news model be the one you usually talk with, and it would return data from your 
own database, unless the data there is too old, in which case it would talk to 
the other model to load the data from Google.
