Project Pipeline

All data is contained in a zip file in the Drive directory

  1. Download all data and setup repo by running bash populate_repo.sh

  2. Run python 01_pull_shooting_articles.py to scrape news articles on police killings

  3. Clean the retrieved articles by first switching to conda activate dragnet and running python 03_dragnet_clean.py --input_glob "data/raw/shootings-articles/*/*.html" --output "data/raw/shootings-txt"

  4. Return to conda activate framing-pv and compile all scraped shooting articles with their political leanings by running python 04_build_shooting_df.py

  5. Switch to conda activate coref and extract all frames by running python 05_framing_functions.py

  6. Switch back to conda activate framing-pv and run python 06_clean_framing_file.py to generate the composite file for framing analysis

  7. Run the analyses in paper-analysis.ipynb and protest-granger.ipynb
