Thanks to sr33 for relevant news links idea and implementation

Code

The main files are samacharbot2.py, altsummary.py and blacklist.py, ignore the rest, they are either config files for heroku or files for testing.

Contribute

Help me in identifying websites which break the bot which provide summaries like "Javascript is not enabled" or "Email not sent" or other such messages.

Fork, edit the blacklist file by appending domain name (you can check this by reading what's written next to the reddit title in brackets) to it and send a pull request!

Thanks!
