Sorry ’bout that. the solution was to load jdom lib, nothing wrong with example.

Hi Bradford, I suggest you to validate the xml before you parsing it using ROME. Check the source RSS and see if it does not contain any error. There are online tools to validate RSS. Search on Google and you will get lot of such online utilities.
