Tool of Gdelt

declared in 0.1.0

Day-by-day AVERAGE NEWS SENTIMENT for a GDELT query over time. Returns datapoints with timestamp + tone value (-100 very negative .. +100 very positive, computed from GDELT's sentiment scoring of every article matching the query). Use for tracking sentiment shifts around a topic, person, country, or event ("how did press coverage of X change after Y happened"). Pair with timeline_volume to chart sentiment vs interest — interest spike + sentiment drop = something bad just happened.
