Looks like you somehow ended up with the Python3 version, look at the path:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/newspaper3k-0.1.7-py2.7.egg/newspaper/ - it looks like the newspaper3k package, not the python2 compatible version.

Can you try:

pip uninstall newspaper3k
pip install newspaper --upgrade

?

Maybe try installing a new version of requests:

pip install requests -U

if this doesn't work I have no idea what the problem is.

Requirement already up-to-date: requests in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages

[manuel-delverme]

installed httpie and jupyter, now it works but it's black magic to me

new freeze > https://clbin.com/7IMbC

close the issue if you feel like

[yprez]

really weird... but if it works I guess it's ok (until it comes up again)
