From the other posts on stack overflow this should be working

import socket

s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)                 

s.connec         


        

Answer 1

Sorry to waste everyone's time. I just found this solution here on Stack Overflow (just took some rewording in my Google search to find)

import socket
request = b"GET / HTTP/1.1\nHost: www.cnn.com\n\n"
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect(("cnn.com", 80))
s.send(request)
result = s.recv(10000)
while (len(result) > 0):
    print(result)
    result = s.recv(10000)

And all of the answers were right as well about the ending \r\n\r\n however those returned 301 statuses. This solution seems to follow the redirect somehow? Anyways, this solutions worked for me
