Hey! For a CNN python scraper, I’d recommend starting with Selenium for dynamic content. CNN’s site is pretty heavy on JS, so BeautifulSoup alone might not cut it.
I used Selenium with ChromeDriver and it worked like a charm. Just make sure to add some delays between requests to avoid getting blocked.
Also, check out Scrapy if you want something more robust. It’s a bit complex but super powerful for scraping.
Good luck!
