If the RSS feed is XML (and my understanding is it is) then you can apply an XSL stylesheet to it. That being the case basically you get to specify the format of the display. XSL takes XML And applies a style in most cases HTML display tot he XML. ou caould also do an OSD option that turned on the news tocker or somethin gif you'd like. That could just stream the headlines across the bottom of the screen while you were watching TV much like is at the bottom of the news channels except you could choose the feeds to be included and it could scroll at the bottom of any show you were watching. In this case if the Headline scrolling was of interest you could either choose a button to expand it or maybe even mark the article for viewing later. SOmething like that.
Back to the original question. Go to the www.w3c.com website and have a look at their tutorial for XSL it will give you an idea of what I'm talking about formatting the raw XML.
