Mehroz, the issue is with the resource you're trying to use, it is a wordpress site, and there's a problem with the rss generator, which does not allow access to the those images and updating of the feed. 


If you enter 403 forbidden rss in google you'll get most of the result related to the rss of the wordpress plugin. 


If you enter another rss feed, like Nationail Geographic, you'll see that everything is displayed properly.
