Description

Hi, so i have been playing with different news feeds and i have realised the included one has 3 elements feed>entry>title

however, most rss feeds use this layout: rss>channel>item>title

at the moment i can only us the verge as a source as it works but i want to use BBC or Sky news (http://feeds.skynews.com/feeds/rss/uk.xml) which uses the 2nd layout. if i could get it to read through one extra line then it would be perfect! but i cant, i've tried a few different things but haven't managed to get it to work. i would really appreciate it if you could show me how? im new to this!

thanks!
