We should research and find the APIs we wish to query in order to get back a list of article. Maybe we can start with 1 API and build from there.

@MynahMarie The Guardian is open source, might be a nice place to start?

MynahMarie commented 6 years ago

@harrygfox will definitely check out Guardian, for the meantime I would like to suggest maybe this API: https://newsapi.org It's free for developers to use and has access to 5,000 news sources. It's also possible to search by keyword. There is even a npm module created using this api: https://www.npmjs.com/package/newsapi

What does everyone think? @nervnews/developers

Ok, so I guess we will stick to Guardian as Pavel suggested because it is true that it can return a full article and we need text in order to analyze the data.
