Just so I'm clear... I didn't create a custom type I only extended an existing type. So since it uses the genericAdmin to display the objects in dmNews, all I need to do to modify its display within this project is the following:
Step 1: Make a copy of the genericAdmin.cfm (/farcry/farcry_core/tags/farcry/) and put it in /farcry/myApp/tags/ directory. Step 2: Then create a list.cfm page that will live in the root of the /farcry/myApp/CustomAdmin directory and add the line <cfimport taglib="/farcry/myApp/tags/" prefix="farcry">. There are 2 things I'm not understanding. It would seem that this option would work for custom types only because they have there own list.cfm pages that are telling it what tags to import. Maybe this will be answered by telling me what the list.cfm page mentioned above (in step2) would look like. Also if I do this and it works for both custom and extended types as well wouldn't it work on all extended types the same...I only want the extra columns available for the dmNews type not the dmEvents or dmFacts types etc. Am I just totally confused?

I am still testing this; so let me know if you run into any issues...
