`newsticker-url-list-defaults'.

This is an alist.  Each element consists of two items: a LABEL and a URL,
optionally followed by a START-TIME, INTERVAL specifier and WGET-ARGUMENTS.

The LABEL gives the name of the news feed.  It can be an arbitrary string.

The URL gives the location of the news feed.  It must point to a valid
RSS or Atom file.  The file is retrieved by calling wget, or whatever you
specify as `newsticker-wget-name'.

URL may also be a function which returns news data.  In this case
`newsticker-retrieval-method' etc. are ignored for this feed.

The START-TIME can be either a string, or nil.  If it is a string it
specifies a fixed time at which this feed shall be retrieved for the
first time.  (Examples: \"11:00pm\", \"23:00\".)  If it is nil (or
unspecified), this feed will be retrieved immediately after calling
`newsticker-start'.

The INTERVAL specifies the time between retrievals for this feed.  If it
is nil (or unspecified) the default interval value as set in
`newsticker-retrieval-interval' is used.

\(newsticker.el calls `run-at-time'. The newsticker-parameters START-TIME
and INTERVAL correspond to the `run-at-time'-parameters TIME and REPEAT.)

WGET-ARGUMENTS specifies arguments for wget (see `newsticker-wget-name')

`newsticker-wget-arguments'."
