Latest version of GDELT mentions tone for Querying Articles:
Tone. Allows you to filter for only articles above or below a particular tone score (ie more positive or more negative than a certain threshold). To use, specify either a greater than or less than sign and a positive or negative number (either an integer or floating point number). To find fairly positive articles, search for "tone>5" or to search for fairly negative articles, search for "tone<-5".
tone<-5
ToneAbs. The same as "Tone" but ignores the positive/negative sign and lets you simply search for high emotion or low emotion articles, regardless of whether they were happy or sad in tone. Thus, search for "toneabs<1" for fairly neutral articles or search for "toneabs>10" for fairly emotional articles.
toneabs>10
