This project was not written due to political affiliation. It was written more as a commentary on the media's coverage of Donald Trump. At some points during the process of building this project, Donald Trump had over twenty articles about him on the front page of CNN.com. This statistic seems like an exaggeration but it is not and CNN is not the only news organization trying to capitalize on Donald Trump's popularity. Every news outlet has had between 3 and 30 articles on their front page regarding Donald Trump.
