I'm attempting to install the newspaper module on python, but I keep getting an error saying that there is no such module.

I've tried making sure my directory is set to the right place, and I've checked that the module is installed. PyCharm, which I'm using, shows it to be installed when I check there. Why is it saying that there is no module when I've clearly already installed it?

It's importable as just newspaper:

import newspaper

(The PyPI name will not always align with the package name.)

>>> import newspaper
>>> newspaper.__version__
'0.2.7'

From shell:

$ pip list | grep newspaper
newspaper3k              0.2.7

To be more specific, the name newspaper3k is defined in setup.py. This does not necessarily have to match the top-level package name at the file level.
