In this tutorial we will learn how to scrape data from news websites like CNN & NBC using Python.
News websites contains a lot of data. Every day more data is posted on these websites on most hot topics around the world. They are a great source not only for news but also for other things like health, fashion, finance, Tech, Gadgets etc. One can find new articles on almost any topics on new websites.
The main advantage of scraping news websites and overall data is that you can do it with virtually any web site — as long as the content is online, it is possible for you to scrape it, starting from weather forecasts to government spending, even if the particular site does not have an API for raw data access. You want only news articles about “health”? No problem at all! You want blog posts in a certain language? From a specific country? You got it! It is a simple and cost-effective solution for obtaining data from the web that will save you a lot of time and money if done “sustainably”, so you could focus on what to do with the obtained data.
In this tutorial we will scrape two new websites CNN https://edition.cnn.com/ and NBC News https://www.nbcnews.com/ . We will go to these two websites and scrape all the news articles related to COVID-19.
