news_crawler

A simple news crawler using Python

The news-crawler web-application is able to scrape news data from big news-pages, at the moment it scrapes data from CNN, RT, BBC and Al jazerra. The class design is aimed to make it easy to implement new data-fetchers. The functionality to date features the scrapping of the article title, short text and link to full text, as well as displaying all this data in shape of a news-feed (see picture below).

We are using python 3.7 with flask and plotly dash to realize this project.

Whats next

We currently working on a Natural Language Processing approach to give a sentiment text-analysis of each news broadcaster.
