This paper considers news as a text corpus. The computational analysis of the news from this
perspective requires data mining and analysis techniques that can handle large amounts of unstructured
dataprocessing. KNIME, a free andopen-source software (FOSS) that is developed for data science
applications, is very suitable for news analysis from this perspective. KNIME offers advanced text mining
and analytics capabilities. Here, we develop an example workflow for online news content analysis, as
well as a text-network analysis. Furthermore, we explicatein detail the workflow and the KNIME nodes
used for these analyses. Our proposed workflow is reasonably versatileand flexible to be applied to other
journalistic textual analyses such as similarity, sentiment, frame, discourse, and thematic analyses. This
workflow also exemplifies how no/low codedata processing and computing could be effectivelyemployed
in journalism and media studies.
