E.g. with using something like: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26278348/how-do-i-mark-a-python-package-as-python-2-only with a message to install newspaper3k in the python-2-head branch

It's a common issue that users get when first installing newspaper, #239 #226, #244 are recent examples of this...

An alternative would be changing the package names somehow

Or maybe just move the pip install line to the top of the readme where people will notice it....
