Here is my code:

import requests
import json

r = requests.get(url="news_api_here")
json_data = json.loads(r.content)

for i in range(len(json_data)):
    title = str(json_data[i]["headline"])
    print(title)

The output for a given title is something like this:

Development%2c Expansion%2c Merger%2c Acquisition%2c New Product Launches%2c and Pricing Analysis%3c%2fa%3e%3c

How can I decode the string to proper characters?

Use request's library unquote()

import requests

requests.utils.unquote(title)
