IIRC HTML articles are displayed by Gnus using shr.el, I assume this
would need to be fixed there (though I'm not sure if this is really a
"bug" or expected behavior for an HTML renderer).

The curly quotes I found in this feed do not appear literally in the
feed, but rather appear as "&#8220;" and "&#8221;" in the HTML content
of the article; AFAIU this is the correct way to include such characters
in HTML, so it doesn't surprise me they show up correctly in Gnus.

Thank you for reporting these issues,
Daniel
