USGS RSS Feed Improperly Formated

I am trying to make a flow to monitor the USGS RSS feed for our state at https://www.usgs.gov/news/idaho/feed but the connector returns the following error:

 

{
  "status"400,
  "message""Failed to read requested Feed information. Details: 'Text' is an invalid XmlNodeType. Line 39, position 13.\r\nclientRequestId: 6849955b-4f2e-47e8-ad16-914beff406f0",
  "error": {
    "message""Failed to read requested Feed information. Details: 'Text' is an invalid XmlNodeType. Line 39, position 13."
  },
  "source""rss-usgt.azconn-gcc-usgt.p.azurewebsites.us"
}
 
When I go to line 39 of the output if find this line of code:
 
 
This is a link back to the new articles.
 
I looked up the documentation for this tag at W3Schools and it says that the tag should be formatted as:
 
<enclosure url="https://www.w3schools.com/media/3d.wmv" length="78645" type="video/wmv" />
 
There is nothing to be done about it. The USGS is just doing it wrong but I was wondering if there is a way to correct this as it comes back?

    Hello @MarionS 

    I just tried the RSS connector using the URL you provided and I do not get any errors.

    Is the error still there for you?

    Kind regards, John
