So let's say I wanted to take an rss like [url]http://world.kbs.co.kr/rss/rss_news.htm?lang=e[/url] and get that raw text and have a C program be able to parse just the headlines. I can understand the parsing, but where would I start in trying to download the html file and convert it into a using text format for C?
That feed is intentionally shortened so people will have to visit the website, and the website doesn't follow any standards.
Just parse it with ah HTML(!) parser and figure out which page elements you need from the source.
The reason you need an HTML parser is that websites are often malformed and can't be parsed by a normal strict parser for that reason.

This particular site has a <p id="content"></p> that you can target directly for the article text.
That's not a give though.
Do you know of any good libraries for parsing with?
