I need to gather the text of the articles from multiple URLs. Code functions perfectly when entered. However, by re-entering print(first_article.text) for exporting the output to CSV only the first article appears. Is there a reason why this is happening and how would it be possible to export the text from all files?
import newspaper
from newspaper import Article
lista = ['url','url']
for list in lista:
first_article = Article(url="%s" % list, language='en')
first_article.download()
first_article.parse()
print(first_article.text)
#This prints all articles
print(first_article)
#This prints only one

I think I see the problem. You want to get a list of articles. You can achieve this by appending a list:
lista = ['url','url']
articles = [] #initialize a list
for list in lista:
first_article = Article(url="%s" % list, language='en')
first_article.download()
first_article.parse()
articles += [first_article.text] # Add article to list
print(first_article.text)
print(articles) #Print all articles
