A section whose own upstream RSS items link to a non-article page (for example podcasts, whose items link to an episode index, or the two -podcast sections, which link to a podcast player) still returns real title/url/summary metadata here -- it is only /api/v1/economictimes/article that would reject that specific item's url as not a canonical article URL.
