https://spreadfirefox.authstage.mozilla.com/feeds/latest has a broken footer.

One of those "module things," I bet :-(

See screenshot; thanks to Aakash for the find.

If this can be shown to not to be a CCS problem then i would guess it will be a problem with the Views builder.

Its probably worth having this one looked at by someone who knows more about CSS that me. 
I can't work on this any further at the moment as i have no working local spreadfirefox server until i get a fresh copy of the database

I still see this on https://spreadfirefox.authstage.mozilla.com/feeds/latest

So, this is similar to the other content aggregation problems we've had with the footer breaking.  What happens is that one of the posts that is aggregated has invalid HTML (i.e. missing </div> or other tag) and anything past that point in the page breaks (including the footer)

There's no easy way to fix this.  We can look into options like HTML validators, stripping HTML altogether, etc.  Maybe there is a solution I don't know about, so it's worth looking into

http://www.spreadfirefox.com/feeds/latest doesn't exist anymore, so I guess that makes this bug invalid

Verified; I don't think we care about the missing /feeds/ directory/functionality -- seems covered by various pieces of News & Events; reopen, file a new if I'm mistaken.
