I don't like feeding in a separate container. There are times when you must, like if you have a colony, and I am sure there are other reasons too.
King snakes are aggressive when their feeding response is triggered, but subsides when they are done. Also, you have to handle a snake that has just eaten in order to put him back in his cage risking regurgitation - that or leave him in the feeding container.
I've read some folks think it's more sanitary to feed in another container, but I'd argue that the crap later on is a bigger problem, and you don't put in a bathroom container, right?
I agree with newspaper - safe and ugly.
