Fixing Broken RSS feed, duplicate items via "pubDate"


I am trying to subscribe to an RSS feed for a fighter's history via MixedMartialArts.com, but this particular website updates the pubDate for each of the fights, causing duplicates every time the pubDate is updated.

However, other attributes of each remain the same, particularly <title>.

What can I do (maybe via Yahoo Pipes, or other normalizer) to fix this issue temporarily until they correct the problem on their end?


Solution

  • I use Google Reader, and find that it is very good at dealing with malformed feeds.
