Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is identified in the report. Reproduce the issue using the Talk Python RSS feed and inspect how Planet renders HTML held in CDATA; done means the feed content displays as HTML rather than encoded markup, with a regression test covering the case.

Description

REPORT A BUG/PROBLEM

Hi, I want to notify you of a bug/problem that is happening on the Planet.

I am using:
O.S: n/a
Browser: n/a
Platform: (mobile, tablet, desktop) web

Problem

On planetpython.org the HTML display for RSS feeds that embed their HTML in CDATA (seems correct to avoid breaking the RSS XML parsing), seems to result in HTML encoded presentation on the website.

Details

Here's an example from https://talkpython.fm/rss

over-encoded

Thanks.
