Get quantity of news for S&P 500 stocks

Hello, I would like to get pure number of company news articles for each of the s&p 500 stocks!

Like a table with monthly frequencies for the time frame 2015-2019:


For example:

2015 Jan. : Apple 53

2015 Jan. : Blackrock 29

....

2019 Dec.. : Verizon 12


Any ideas how to proceed? Any possible solution interface, .R or Python would be helpful!

    I don't believe this can be done using Datastream or Eikon. To the best of my knowledge Datastream does not provide any metrics related to news headlines. And with Eikon Data APIs currently one can only retrieve news headlines going back 15 months.
