One other issue, but I suspect it has something to do with the feed itself. Is there any way to get rid of the preview blob at the beginning of the article? I think this one as an example is coming from CNN so it's not like I have control over what they put out

Well, quite frankly this is an ugly hack at best IMO and would greatly appreciate a better solution.

I created a custom module

{rss id=1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 max=0}

Then I assigned it with the following Parameters in order to keep it hidden but allow it to do its job

nobox=y&notitle=y

Finally I added a cron job to reload my site on a regular basis to keep the feed up to date with or without site traffic in order to update the outgoing RSS
