Dataset Structure

3 folders, with many text files in each. Each text file represent the body text of one article.

Annotations

Articles were manually annotated by news editors who were attempting to select representative articles from the left, right and center of each article topic. In other words, the dataset should generally be balanced - the left/right/center articles cover the same set of topics, and have roughly the same amount of articles in each.
