Unsatisfying feeds

Note: This story has been updated.
Not sure which bugs me more. This:
That the news headline RSS for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch doesn’t seem to provide any content except or synopsis.
Or this:
That the main RSS for the St. Louis Beacon is just a Twitter feed…and so doesn’t provide any content beyond a duplication of the title of the link.
Maybe it’s a tie.
Update: Beacon presentation editor Brent Jones replies in comments. The Beacon is already working on a fuller content solution for feeds.
Update: Post-Dispatch social media director Kurt Greenbaum also replies. Like Jones, he’s looking into feed solutions.
