Political sentiment analysis of press freedom

Summary/Abstract: This article applies computer political sentiment analysis to news stories mentioning government officials published by major news portals in Kazakhstan and Poland. Surprisingly, while Kazakhstan is classified in freedom rankings as “not free”, its major media publish more critical views about the government than media in Poland, a country classified as“free” or “mostly free”. The presented methodology also allows to derive the real political power structure. The article shows that international freedom rankings can be improved by political sentiment analysis to local news.
