LA Times feed has many duplicate items #581

The RSS feed for the LA Times has lots of duplicate items with different timestamps. As best as I can tell, this is not actually a problem with feedbin, as the duplicate items seem to disappear from the RSS feed once the new item appears. I was wondering what the best way would be to show to their support that the same articles appear sometimes many times in their feed. Is there a tool I can use to log and show them the actual XML file? The best explanation that I can come up with is that every time an article is updated, it gets a new RSS entry (which I think points to more structural issues with their CMS).

The feed is: http://www.latimes.com/rss2.0.xml

Thanks for the help @benubois or anyone else.
