newspaper unable to find embeded youtube video

[sylvainrocheleau]

I'm trying to pull a youtube url from a Wordpress post:

import newspaper
url = 'http://felicite.ca/2014/03/31/paul-eric-kingue-par-hermann-kenfack/'
a = newspaper.Article(url)
a.download()
a.parse()
a.movies
[]
I ran the exact same code with the url from this issue (#64) and got two youtube urls, so everything seems fine on my end.Also, when I ran a.text and a.top_image ,they both retrieved content that are in the right sidebar...

Hi the problem is with the way top node is calculated. On that webpage, the article basically has no text, just a picture and a video. So a node in the sidebar is counted as the top node.

>> print a.top_node.text_content()
>> Apprendre à se présenter en chinois mandarin pour les

You can also just do

>> print a.text
>> Apprendre à se présenter en chinois mandarin pour les

As you can see, that's under Mots chinois du jour section in the siderbar on the right side.
