This is not right. This path will not hold valid for every user. Thus not correct. The earlier one will search for config.yml in the present directory and make sure it is the relative path and not the full path..

move the URL to the parameter of the class while stories or topic as input to the method based on which either it will fetch stories or topics. or if possible create an interface and then inherits different class both of which it will handle differently based on their use case.

I added an additional option to let users choose to read the top stories based on category/topic. When they initially run the program, it will first ask whether they want to read articles based on topic or news source. If by news source, the program gives the original news source options to choose from. If by topic, the program gives a new menu to pick a topic.
