I don't know of any specifically but I do know I've seen a few that scrape news from various sources.  Unfortunately I haven't been keeping up with the modding scene all that much these days so I can't point you in the right direction.

In terms of Mystic Python it can be done with a few lines of code, but obviously you'd need to understand Python.

import feedparser

NewsFeed = feedparser.parse("https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/rssfeedstopstories.cms")

writeln("Number of RSS posts: " + str(len(NewsFeed.entries)))

entry = NewsFeed.entries[1]

writeln("Post Title: " + entry.title);
