# Adding the original Interview Data

You probably don't need this, rather use `result/Data/cut_news_dialogue.tsv` (see below)

Download `news_dialog.zip` via: https://github.com/zcgzcgzcg1/MediaSum

De-compress and put `news_dialog.json` (4.5 GB) in `MediaSum` directory. We use the same IDs for the interviews in our data as in the original `news_dialog.json`.

Data format of `news_dialog.json`:
