Can I add a third party online feed as a channel to WMC?

Hi, guys. I'm new to this forum. I'm currently in the process of abandoning cable tv altogether. I just started using WMC a week ago with a repurposed desktop. I finally got my tuner to work with WMC getting all the OTA channels. One of my few indispensable channels is a news channel I watch. I personally know of a few places online who run live feeds of this channel on the interwebs. Is there anyway I can make it a channel on WMC. So for example if I find somewhere that streams the real CNN channel is there anyway I can get the stream address to that feed and create a channel on WMC? Thanks.

I think this would help - http://www.secondrun.tv
There may be an easier way to get your single channel in but SecondRun should work.
