New Feature
What does this feature do?
This change adds CNN to the app’s default source set and wires CNN into the existing source-specific RSS fetch fallback flow. CNN articles now participate in the same ingestion path as other built-in publishers.
Why is this feature needed?
The issue requires CNN to be available out of the box and fetchable using the same implementation pattern as existing sources (default source registration + per-source feed fallback handling).
Implementation details
defaultSourcesinsrc/App.tsxso new installs/users see CNN as an available active source.fetchArticlesFromRSSinsrc/lib/articleService.tswith CNN alternate feed URLs, matching the existing per-source fallback pattern used for other providers.NewsSourcemodel and source management UI already support arbitrary sources; no new model fields or UI components were required.
