CNN.com has RSS feeds: updated URLs, if you need ‘em. The [feed] URLs will open whatever you have configured to handle feed:// type URLs. The others are http:// URLs for your copying or linking pleasure.

It looks like we get excerpts on inhouse content and “Read full story for latest details.” for wire stories.
It’s been a long time coming . . . .
And in case you’re curious about how long I have been grumbling about this . . .
<update> well, from what I understand (I still know some people there), this is but a preview, an aperitif, of what my former colleagues have planned. I hope that if we’ve waited this long, they’re going to reward us.
Well done, anyway, and some days I still wish I was part of all that.
<followup> Well, those updated URLs are rumored to be solid: check ‘em out.
I’m interested to see a feed of most popular stories mentioned: that’s exactly the kind of thing that can only originate inhouse, since it would be driven by actual log data. Very cool idea . . .

Thanks for finding this! Great stuff. Looks like the links to the “most popular” feeds are wrong, though — give ‘em a once over.
Paul, that was a great find and a useful one.

Hi, thanks!
btw, the links are wrong, but you can ues the text instead which is leading to the right place.

Thanks, I looked all over for rss feeds for the Roxico.com “Roxico Media Ticker 2.0″ I am basicaly a computer illiterate, so until I found your site the only one I got, other than what came with program, was Fox.
Thanks for the easy set up to the CNN Channels.
If you have any other in the rss 2.0 format I would appreciate the help.
Thanks Again

So now it’s August 2007 and CNN’s RSS feeds are the worst! Any RSS feed I subscribe to, with the exception of their main news feed, such as technology, for example, goes for weeks without being updated. I see the same items there every single day on my netvibes.com News tab. So sad…
Yeah, I stopped checking some time ago. The main problem for me was that they have limited rights to distribute content that isn’t theirs, so no summaries or full-text feeds.
I’m not surprised the update frequency has dropped: I don’t think RSS/syndication is as widely-adopted as we would hope.
I would prefer BBC over Cnn.But will try Cnn rss feeds.Thanks for the info.
