Is there any News search api that also provides a thumbnail (if any) in that news article ? - for Commercial use.

I am trying to put together a small news tab for my iOS app. I am trying to achieve an interface similar to " Pulse ". So was searching for a news API to search for business related news, with a thumbnail. I am extractiong the "og:image" property from each of the search results I get from the Bing API, but I am running into performance issues. Any pointers or suggestions please ?
Answer:

NewsCred's API can do exactly what you need, including full-text articles and images. Plus its legal to use for commercial use (if you are selling your app, or plan to run ads, using an API like Bing to display news is illegal).

Event Registry (http://eventregistry.org/) provides the functionality that you want. You can search for the articles, get the list of mentioned people, locations, organizations, etc. It's freely available and provides a REST API to access the data. You can try using it using this Python library: https://github.com/gregorleban/EventRegistry/(Disclaimer: I'm one of the authors of the service)

You can use the http://webhose.io/ API to search for news as well for blogs & message boards. You can filter the results by a textual Boolean query, performance score (i.e how viral was the post), country, language and many other parameters as described here: https://webhose.io/documentation.
