When you ask for that URL at www.thetimes.co.uk, you get a redirect: $ wget -S http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/news/rss --2016-09-13 07:49:38-- http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/news/rss Resolving www.thetimes.co.uk (www.thetimes.co.uk)... 194.221.65.8, 194.221.65.62 Connecting to www.thetimes.co.uk (www.thetimes.co.uk)|194.221.65.8|:80... connected.
