I'm thinking to load latest news in some hook_preprocess_HOOK function (using the EntityFieldQuery object) then add them inside a variable for the Twig template. Inside the template I will perform a for loop rendering latest news at the page's bottom. Is this a good way to do it or I'm completely out of the way?
