The dataset includes the article source, the article title, and the sentences where they mention 4chan to analyse the framing. We deleted the article bodies for copyright reasons. Two columns indicate the URL to the article if it appeared online. Additionally, we added a column with URLs to archive.is links of the same articles, in case they were archived.
