News content only dataset

Open hugoabonizio opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

Hi @KaiDMML! Thank you for making FakeNewsNet avalable.

I'm trying to apply the dataset using only the news content, but I'm finding some problems when reproducing the collection. There are lots of sites that have been closed or moved to other domains, so I can't download the articles contents.

I understand the Twitter privacy policies concerns, but is it possible to provide the text only dataset with news contents?

Thanks! :bowtie:

Hi, I am facing the same problem. Have you got the content-only dataset yet? Or do you have any suggestions about what other datasets that can be used? Thanks a lot.
