News-retrieval client-news.google

[brandon.mcginty at gmail.com]

Hi All,
I'm trying to write a news retrieval client in python.
I'm going to get the news from google's news service.
However, when I run the following code, google gives me a 403 error.
Is it google, or urllib2? Or is it the code?
I can parse the 'contents' variable, I just need to know what is going
wrong.

THX,
Brandon


#startofcode
import urllib2,htmldata
url='http://news.google.com/news'#?ned=tus&rec=0'
contents = urllib2.urlopen(url).read()
Print contents
#endofcode
