In order to create the corpus, scripts ran every hour to get URLs for new magazine and newspaper articles from Google News, for about 9,000-10,000 new texts each day. We then downloaded the texts, cleaned them up with JusText (to remove boilerplate material); tagged and lemmatized them; and then integrated them into our existing relational database.
