Question

How can I use python to extract the headline, the news source (usually the name of a newspaper, magazine, TV or radio station), and the publication date/time, from an HTML document of a news story?

Using python I have to make a program that will read an HTML document of a news story, how can I use python to find the above information?

these are the modules I have to use;

from re import findall, finditer, MULTILINE, DOTALL

from tkinter.scrolledtext import ScrolledText

from tkinter import *

from urllib.request import urlopen

and i am only able to use modules from a standard python 3 installation

Try something like this.

print f.read()
