This is the string that appears.

"We&rsquo;ve got some crazy news for you guys, something that&rsquo;s 
got a positive as well as negative outlook for us Delhiites."

I want that the special characters get displayed instead of these codes. This is how I am displaying the description. It is a complete string.

<span>{this.props.feedData.description}</span>

Any ideas on how to do this? (I am using ReactJS)

The data is coming from backend and I get access to it via 'this.props.description' variable. Now when I render this, It renders like this. – Anshu Oct 21 '17 at 07:05
