title: How do you specify retrieving local news when using a Google News RSS URL?
body: <p>I am trying to build an RSS parser that users Google News RSS. I am able to retrieve news articles from the news URL just by targeting the following URL:</p>
  
  <pre><code>https://news.google.com/news/section?output=rss
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, on the google news page their is an option to retrieve news near your current location. This URL in the browser is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>https://news.google.com/news/section?geo=detect_metro_area
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Just adding the output=rss query string parameter is not enough to return the local news in RSS format. Instead, I get a pretty much empty response:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;rss version="2.0"&gt;
  &lt;channel&gt;
  &lt;generator&gt;NFE/1.0&lt;/generator&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;News near you - Google News&lt;/title&gt;
  &lt;link&gt;
  http://news.google.com/news?pz=1&amp;ned=us&amp;hl=en&amp;geo=detect_metro_area
  &lt;/link&gt;
  &lt;language&gt;en&lt;/language&gt;
