They don't choose fortune, they do sentiment analysis on the words in the text. That this might be mapped or interpreted as being the same as fortune is an interpretation. For example positive words don't necessarily mean fortune in the plot, but often a plot showing fortune will have positive words.
This is an important distinction when looking at whether it's good or bad research.

However they only discovered that a variable can go up, down, or stay the same. Not exactly rocket science.
