Need Help Building a CNN Python Scraper – Any Tips or Tutorials?

16 Replies, 2002 Views

Hey! I’ve been there lol. CNN’s site is a pain to scrape.

I used Selenium + BeautifulSoup combo, and it worked pretty well. For dynamic content, Selenium is a must.

Also, check out the `requests` library for making HTTP requests. It’s lightweight and easy to use.

For avoiding blocks, try using proxies or rotating IPs.

Here’s a good tutorial: https://www.scrapingbee.com/blog/web-scr...th-python/
