No, you're not being dense. I used tcpdump to get the URL that the Super Ticker uses to display it. This is indeed the file it's using, but it *is* out of date.

I have a call in to CNN right now trying to figure out what their problem is.

In the event this is not fixed by Friday afternoon, I will provide an alternate URL, and write something that generates random headlines that will simulate that file.

Since CNN advertises the Super Ticker regularly on Headline News, I suspect they will be interested in getting that fixed.
