Dataset Structure

Data Instances

This is an example of the "Almasryalyoum" configuration subset:

{
  "url": "http://today.almasryalyoum.com/printerfriendly.aspx?ArticleID=61300",
  "head_line": "رئيس وزراء المجر: عنصرية جماهير أوجبيست جلبت العار للبلاد",
  "date": "19/5/2007",
  "text": """قال متحدث باسم الحكومة المجرية: إن رئيس الوزراء فيرنك جيوركساني رحب بقرار اتحاد كرة القدم المجري بخصم ثلاث نقاط من نادي أوجبيست بسبب السلوك العنصري الذي صدر من جماهيره.
وعاقب الاتحاد المجري فريق أوجبيست بعد أن سخرت جماهيره من إبراهيم سيديبي مهاجم فريق ديبرينسين الأسود أثناء مباراة الفريقين أوائل مايو الجاري.
يذكر أن الاتحاد فرض أيضا غرامة مالية قدرها 20 ألف دولار علي أوجبيست في عام 2005 بعد أن رددت جماهيره شعارات معادية للسامية خلال مباراة بالدوري المجري.
وأوضح جيوركساني في خطاب إلي إيستفان كيستليكي رئيس الاتحاد المجري لكرة القدم، أن هذا السلوك العنصري من الجماهير «جلب العار لكرة القدم وللمجر». يذكر أن المجر بها مجموعة من مشجعي كرة القدم المشاغبين «الهوليجانز»، وشارك الكثير منهم في أعمال شغب معادية للحكومة في العام الماضي.""",
