scripts for retrieving facebook/twitter data?

[alex2awesome]

hey! very cool dataset.

wondering if you can push whatever scripts you used to collect the data from facebook and twitter? sans your personal tokens, of course. might make this even more useful to folks.

hey, thanks for the suggestion! Can you clarify which scripts for gathering from Twitter or Facebook would be useful? Are you talking about a simple flow to take you from "Facebook Id" or "Twitter Id" to retrieving a Twitter or Facebook post from that local news page?

yeahh whatever flow you used to go from the dataset you provide here to the final dataset you used in your paper for textual analysis.

(besides helping people use your dataset, these scripts also help reproduce any quantitative experiments/results you present in your paper — in general, that helps with reproducibility)
