Im not sure where to post this.. but using feedapi with element mapper I always get the original url from google news items with "http://news.google.com/news/url?fd=R&sa=T&url=" in beginning of the the link. Is there a way to remove this ?

- Where exactly does the link turn up?
- Which parser do you use?

Exhaustive parser and simple pie. When I use it it always lists the original url as ""http://news.google.com/news/url?fd=R&sa=T&url=" and the original feed link after that. The problem is after clicking on the link , you always get an google internal re-direct warning, and calais has a little problem processesing the feed link.
