Web scraping is a technique that can be used to acquire data from websites. It involves using a program or tool to extract data from the website's HTML code and structure it into a format that can be analyzed. This technique is often used to extract large amounts of data from websites that do not have an API (application programming interface) or other means of accessing the data. In the case of an analyst who is required to run a text analysis of data found in articles from a digital news outlet, web scraping would be the best technique to apply to acquire the data. The analyst can use a web scraping tool or program to extract the text data from the news articles and structure it in a way that is suitable for analysis. The other options (sampling, data wrangling, and ETL) are not as relevant to the task of acquiring data from a digital news outlet for text analysis. Sampling involves selecting a subset of data for analysis, data wrangling involves cleaning and preparing data for analysis, and ETL (extract, transform, load) refers to a process used to move data between systems.
