Florida Man vs MarketAux

Florida Man API serves a static, occasionally-updated JSON dataset of more than 10,000 real 'Florida Man' headlines scraped from news outlets, each with a title, source, date, and keyword tags. It's hosted as flat JSON on GitHub Pages rather than a dynamic backend, so there's no authentication, no rate limit, and no key required — just a GET request away.

Marketaux focuses on financial and stock-market news, tagging articles with entities, tickers, and a -1 to +1 sentiment score across over 200,000 entities and 5,000+ sources in 30+ languages. The free plan allows 100 requests/day returning up to 3 articles each; paid Basic through Pro 50K tiers raise both the daily request cap and articles-per-request limit, plus unlock the entity-level Market Stats endpoint. Access is JSON over a single API-key parameter.
