Well, if your subscription code was validated for some feeds, unless you used a different code, it should work for all feeds. This https://pubsubhubbub.appspot.com/subscribe will help you confirm your subscriptions are valid an in order (the second part about diagnostic is what you're looking for)
Now both the CNN feed and thefoxnews feeds use feedburner but we (http://superfeedr.com) found that feedburner was behaving differently depending on the feed. The most common issue is that subscriber tend to subscribe to a url that is not the "self" when feedburner only 'pings' the hub for the self url. You said you subscribed to http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss Now, when you look inside that feed, there is a link element with rel="self" that points to http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories (without the .rss). Based on the PubSubHubbub protocol, this is this url that you're supposed to use for your subscription.... It's a bit tricky, but try that and let us know if that works :) Julien -- Julien Genestoux, http://superfeedr.com On Tue, Jan 22, 2013 at 6:29 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > I am able to get notifications from certain feeds ( > http://fastpshb.appspot.com/feed/1/fastpshb and > http://feeds.feedburner.com/foxnews/latest) but not > http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss.
