Thank you for asking, Liam. Let me paraphrase my understanding of what you want. Given a topic (hashtag, or just a word or phrase), you'd first collect all the tweets on that topic in a given date range. For each of the tweet in your sample, you next want to obtain data on news media articles that refer to the focal tweet. Did I understand you correctly AND completely? If no, please help. If yes: you can obtain Twitter data from vendors such as Crimson Hexagon or GNIP. Next, you can write a program that searches Factiva or LexisNexis Academic for each tweet by text, username, etc. ________________________________________ From: Air-L <air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org> on behalf of LIAM MONNINGER <lmonninger@ucla.edu> Sent: Sunday, August 5, 2018 10:24 AM To: air-l@listserv.aoir.org Subject: [Air-L] Tweet Secondary Media Uptake Hi everyone, My name is Liam Monninger. I'm an undergraduate researcher at UCLA, working on a project that seeks to understand tweets as commitment devices in international politics. To better understand the audience of a given tweet, I would like to be able to see and tabulate the secondary media where said tweet is embedded. I was thinking, in the very least, I could just make a list of major publications worldwide and manually check articles to see if a certain tweet is embedded. But, it would be nice to have a more sophisticated method. Any ideas? Is there perhaps a useful API?
