http://feeds.feedburner.com/reuters/worldNews/
is still returning the raw RSS to me (Firefox). They've also stuck a
client-side stylesheet on top of it, so that your browser's default
presentation of it will be in HTML, not as raw RSS.  However I still
have just as much programmatic "access" to the RSS content as ever.

Try playing with different user-agent strings in your feed reader
client, ones that don't look like well-known web browsers.
