    This document summarizes a data visualization of Twitter responses to the 2018 Kerala floods in India. It scrapes over 15,000 tweets, cleans the data, and encodes whether tweets came from national or local media. An interactive visualization shows tweets peaked on August 18th. It observes national media gave little attention initially while regional media reported more. However, the conclusions note national media covers all of India so its flood tweet fraction would naturally be lower, and an effective comparison would analyze other recent events' tweet fractions as well.

    Observations

    ● The overall distribution resembles the shape of a normal distribution curve, peaked at
    August 18, 2018.
    ● National media gave very less attention in the first 8 days of August, even though
    regional media was giving enough attention to the issue. At the peak values, both
    national and regional channels gave enough weight to the flood-related news.
    Conclusions

    National media covers news from all over India. Therefore, it is expected that the
    fraction of tweets related to Kerala flood to be lesser than regional media. Therefore it
    cannot be concluded from this visualization, that National Media was not covering news
    related to Kerala floods. A way for effective comparison would be by identifying the
    fraction of tweets related to other recent significant events — Modi’s Independence
    speech, Adal Bihari Vajpei’s demise etc. — and comparing it with Kerala Flood.
    Thankyou
