Deadline API endpoint
Lists the 48 Deadline sections accepted by `deadline-headlines`: 28 editorial categories such as `news`, `reviews` and `festivals`, and 20 verticals such as `film`, `tv`, `business` and `awards`. Each entry has the `slug`, `name` and feed `url`.
/deadline/sectionsReturns Deadline's complete public section inventory (48 sections, live-verified against the site's own WordPress REST API), the value space accepted by /api/v1/deadline/headlines. Deadline exposes its editorial taxonomy across two separate WordPress taxonomies -- 28 editorial categories (e.g. news, reviews, festivals) and 20 verticals (e.g. film, tv, business, awards) -- both included here.
Each section includes a stable slug, display name, and the public upstream RSS feed url for that section.
