It's basically a page on my site just to put news snippets such as new

I've gone with
<h4>News Title</h4> (h1, h2 and h3 are already being used within the page
for heading and sub heading)
<p class="news_date">News Date</p>
<p class="news_content">News Content</p>
At the risk of reading too much into your wording...
Don't avoid using a headline level just because it's "already being
used within the page". Think of headlines as the items in a standard
outline form. In general practice a page will have only one h1
restating its title; after that just increment the headline number as
you drill into the content structure.
If you've got a headline for the collection of news items on this
page, e.g. <h2>News</h2>, then you'd use the next level down for the
title of each news story within that section -- regardless of whether
that same level of headline had been used anywhere else on the page.
<h1>Rumors & News</h1>
<h2>Rumors</h2>
<h3>Dog Explodes in Microwave</h3>
<h3>Intelligent Life Discovered on Earth</h3>
<h2>News</h2>
<h3>Obama Visits Ottawa</h3>
<h3>Duchy of Grand Fenwick Invades New York</h3>
...
And it's always a good idea to dip from the well for refreshment:
