The News Has Feelings is a ML applied project for Software Design Spring 2018 by Daena Michelle Cedillo, John-Edwin Gadasu, Benjamin Weissman.

In our divided world today, accusations of media bias sully the political process and stifle intellectual progress through a perpetual focus on eradicating any emotion behind admonition. Many on both sides of the political aisle see the other side’s news organizations as overly emotional and negative. To put these accusations the the test, Vader built a program attempts to understand the landscape through sentiment analysis and comparison.

Prequisites for running on Heroku

Note: Because Heroku does not support matplotlib, graphing a point on the site is not allowed, so though your point will not be graphed live, a dummy graph has been used a place holder so as to not hinder user experience.

JavaScript also increases lag time. For best experience, use Mozilla Firefox and allow the page to refresh if experiencing opacity issues.
