This paper describes the Pioquinto Manterola Hyperpartisan News Detector, which participated in SemEval-2019 Task 4. Hyperpartisan news is highly polarized and takes a very biased or one–sided view of a particular story. We developed two variants of our system, the more successful was a Logistic Regression classifier based on unigram features. This was our official entry in the task, and it placed 23rd of 42 participating teams. Our second variant was a Convolutional Neural Network that did not perform as well.
