Make a service that runs every hour (for example) and get the latests News. Its important to save the last access date to push only news in the interval betwen this date and current date.

Pay attention to 4G limits and battery use.

You can use Timer Class to implement this. https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Timer.html
