You just need to supply the post ID for WP and ACF. Going by your code

// use a wp function 
$excerpt = get_the_excerpt($news->ID);
// use an acf field
$value = get_field('field_name', $news->ID);

I am assuming from your code that you are using a post object field. You can also use setup_postdata() as explained in the documentation.
