Please refer the original ticket. and even the reply from the support does not able to pull the actual news content.

Sorry about that, next time just reply to the closed issue, and we can reopen if it's still valid.

I checked the link you provided again, and unfortunately, this seems like a wontfix. I will wait for my colleague to confirm (he's out of the office right now), but the site is apparently loading the article content into an iframe (or something that looks like an iframe), and we don't support that right now, we only scrape the actual HTML of the page (and that itself does not contain the article text).

Thanks for having a second look, is there any suggestion or workaround that we could possibly scrapy out of those pages?

We are discussing how to handle this case, we might be able to support it. Right now I don't see any workaround for this Actor, as we don't allow any custom code to be executed.
