Description

Google provides RSS feeds but they do not have a specific file associated with them. When importing them, it seems the links break.

RSS feed:
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&gl=us&ned=us&q=pickleball&btnG=Search+...

Am I doing something wrong? Does this work for other people?
Other sites work just fine, as long as they have an rss.xml file somewhere in the url.

This is not a rss feed, this is a google page showing the result.

You can see links on the bottom left side: RSS | Atom . About Feeds

Use the link which point to RSS > http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&gl=us&ned=us&q=pickleball&ie=UTF-8&out...

I tried this RSS feed you posted and receive the error:
The feed from Pickleball News seems to be broken, because of error "not well-formed (invalid token)" on line 13.

Is this solely my issue?
