Mother Jones / The Economist Mashup

http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?_id=4C_BQsWN3RGsQZWv6icw5g&_render=rss

This is a full-text RSS feed of Mother Jones and The Economist. 10 of the most recent articles from each, processed via http://labs.echoditto.com/fulltextrss , then pipes.yahoo.com . I had hoped for the source of each article to be initially anonymous, but the Economist starts each article with "from The Economist, print edition". So that's not happening.
