This is the code from the article I published on Medium
It describes a method to retrieve the number of votes as published on CNN live story hour by hour.
You can find a bash script to download the Json files from the live story news site. Those Json files are also provided in this repository, they contain links to the images I am processing in the article (or you can download the images there)
Have a look to the Jupyter notebook to get more insight on the python code.
Python requirements:
- pandas
- scikit-image
- Pillow
- tqdm
- requests
- ipyplots
- pytesseract
- matplotlib
