Chrome Extension to add top news stories to Facebook Town Hall feature

I recently discovered the Facebook Town Hall feature and thought it was super useful to see what politicians and local government bodies represent my area. I got to thinking about how it might be improved and I settled on a service to see the top 5 news articles pertaining to each entry in the Town Hall directory. Since Facebook, to my knowledge, does not open the Town Hall functionality up to their API I built a Chrome extension that inserts the news articles beneath each entry. The code for the extension can be found here for anyone curious how it works https://github.com/Static-Flow/townhall-news-extension and the url for the extension in the Chrome store is here https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/facebook-town-hall-news-a/cnmgmhnjjoofngkkmlbflpekokahgegj
