Reading from an RSS news feed and inserting them into Drupal's Database

Is there any drupal plugin or code that allows you to read from an external RSS feed (lets say cnn.com/rss) and insert the content posts into the drupal database as content nodes开发者_StackOverflow社区?

I need this to be automatic. Meaning regularly updating the Drupal database every time a news post on cnn.com takes place.

Yes, the Feeds module is used for this. From the project page:

Import or aggregate data as nodes, users, taxonomy terms or simple database records.

• One-off imports and periodic aggregation of content
• Import or aggregate RSS/Atom feeds
• Import or aggregate CSV files
• Import or aggregate OPML files
• PubSubHubbub support
• Create nodes, users, taxonomy terms or simple database records from import
• Extensible to import any other kind of content
• Granular mapping of input elements to Drupal content elements
• Exportable configurations
• Batched import for large files
