I have the same issue with the New York Times--some days it isn't there in the morning but it shows up as a running jobs with times of several hours. Once it was 5 hours (when I looked in the afternnoon). Whatever "timeout" is supposed to apply, clearly doesn't work in some contexts.

As with the OP, it always downloads successfully if I kill the running job and force a new download, usually in a few minutes.
