The variety of big incidents happening in the world and different media were used to report them and publish to the public. The news from the whole world forms a Big data-mine on the internet and wait to be mined. Furthermore, those news media may have their own writing style and stands towards the news which may cause great influence towards readers’ opinion.

Cat eye’s Project is aimed to identify the stands of different news media through the usage of the words of those media. Moreover, we hoped that we can be able to forecast the trend of some social issues and find out whether there is any indication before a new social issue formed. At the same time, we also wanted to find interesting insights and evidence that showed the media can affect readers’ opinions towards social issues.
