Hi

i was wondering, if you could upload a new version of the dataset. As you seem to be crawling the data from gossipcop and politifact, it would be nice to get an updated dataset.

Because, for example, when regarding the gossipcop data. Out of the 5323 news items, only 1749 still have tweet data attributed to them. For every other item, the calls came back empty, as the tweets were either deleted or hidden. Which is understandable as spreading fake news is against twitter guidelines, as far as i am aware.

But because of this, it would be nice, to get a refreshed version of the dataset, maybe with new news items.

Thank you in advance
