You're right that most voting is headline-driven - that's definitely a limitation worth calling out.

I went with full article text because I wanted to capture what the content actually delivers, not just what the headline promises. A clickbait negative headline with a balanced article would skew results if I only looked at titles.

That said, you've got me thinking. It would be interesting to run sentiment on headlines separately and compare. If headline sentiment correlates strongly with article sentiment, your point stands. If they diverge, there might be something interesting about the gap between promise and delivery.

Might be a good follow-up analysis. Thanks for pushing on this.
