title: Tags and element got printed when tried to get only text with web scraping in beatutifulsoap in python
body: <p>I am currently learning web scraping and I came across a problem in beautiful soap module. 
  I ran the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import requests, bs4
  res = requests.get('http://www.weather.gov/')
  res.raise_for_status()
  soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(res.text, "html.parser")
  comicElem = soup.find('#topnews p')
  print (len(comicElem))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And when I am running it shows the result but also shows the tags and in which
  element it is. Like: </p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/0RFAB.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/0RFAB.jpg" alt="Result"></a></p>
  
  <p>How can I hide the <strong>paragraph</strong> tag? Is there any different way? Please check your solution and answer.</p>
