Why can't Python parse this JSON data?

Question

I have this JSON in a file:

{
    \"maps\": [
        {
            \"id\": \"blabla\",
            \"iscategorical\

There are two types in this parsing.

1. Parsing data from a file from a system path
2. Parsing JSON from remote URL.

From a file, you can use the following

import json
json = json.loads(open('/path/to/file.json').read())
value = json['key']
print json['value']
