Newsboat

Newsboat is an RSS/Atom feed reader for the text console. It’s an actively maintained fork of Newsbeuter. A feed reader pulls updates directly from sites like blogs and news agencies, and lets you review them in a single interface. Many times, the feed includes the full text of the update, so you don't even need to start a web browser! You can learn more about feed readers on Wikipedia.

Filter articles out based on title, author, contents etc.
Aggregate articles into meta-feeds by arbitrary criteria
