News-Selection/Data-Source for tagesschau telegram bot #11

Closed atticus-sullivan closed 1 year ago

atticus-sullivan commented 1 year ago

Hi, I'm currently building a chat bot (no worries, just a hobby project, no commercial use) which should periodically send the news just like the telegram tagesschau bot/channel (but not on telegram). For now, I'm still searching where to get these information. I already checked out the api2, documented in this repo, but as far as I checked it, this does not seem to be the data-source for the telegram bot (the texts do not really match).

I'm not sure if you're somehow affiliated with the tagesschau, so maybe you know something about the data-source of the official tagesschau telegram bot/channel (up to now I wasn't able to find any source code for it).

EDIT: Just found https://fragdenstaat.de/anfrage/quellcode-des-telegram-bots-der-tagesschau/ but the request is still (and most probably will stay) unanswered.

I don't know it for a fact, but if it is the official channel of Tagesschau, then they most likely have a team just for re-curating their own material for that specific outlet. After all they have a 8+ Bio. EUR budget to burn through each year (for all the federal media, news is just a small fraction of that)…

Hm, seems like this is the case. Coming from the fact that the messages from the telegram bot are always sent slightly at a different time, the most probable reason is that there are humans curating the messages before sending. And I think the text also is a bit different (tailored for the short messenger message) from the text obtained from the api.

With the breaking news from the headerapp api-endpoint it seems to be the same.

A bit sad that there is no API-access to the curated messages.
