Exercise

Loading and accessing tweets

In the video, we loaded a tweet we collected using tweepy into Python. Tweets arrive from the Streaming API in JSON format and need to be converted into a Python data structure.

In this exercise, we'll load a single tweet into Python and print out some fields.

The tweet JSON has been loaded for you and is stored in tweet_json.
