Parameters for latest news or news from last n days?

[ghost]

I have installed this package from CRAN (tm.plugin.webmining_1.3 tm_0.6-2) and my R version is 3.3.1 . I want to get latest news or news from last n days?

lastndays=2
WebCorpus(GoogleFinanceSource("NASDAQ:MSFT",params = list(hl = "en", q = query, ie = "utf-8", start = 0, num = 20, output = "rss",lastndays=2)))

also some of the functions are not working WebCorpus(GoogleNewsSource("Microsoft")), WebCorpus(YahooFinanceSource("MSFT")) returns similar error

Unknown IO errorfailed to load external entity "http://feeds.finance.yahoo.com/rss/2.0/headline?s=MSFT&region=US&lang=en-US"
Error: 1: Unknown IO error2: failed to load external entity "http://feeds.finance.yahoo.com/rss/2.0/headline?s=MSFT&region=US&lang=en-US"

lastndays is AFAIK no valid parameter for Google Finance feeds.

The call

WebCorpus(GoogleNewsSource("Microsoft"))

works on my computer. Unfortunately

WebCorpus(YahooFinanceSource("MSFT"))

does not. Will be fixed soon.

Best,
