Using data parameters in Selenium Python

Very novice level question. What's the easiest way of opening several websites one by one after reading site names from an external file. In the example below; I want to replace values of web URL from file and screemshot file name in same way.

Example script:

From selenium import webdriver
Driver=webdriver.ie(...driverpath)

Driver.get("facebook.com")
Driver.get_screenshot_as_file("facebook.png")

Driver.quit()

Try this, I have used json for storing the websites, a simple text file will do as well 

import json
from selenium.webdriver import Chrome

with open('path to json file', encoding='utf-8') as s:
    data = json.loads(s.read())

for site in data['sites']:
    driver = Chrome('path to chrome driver')
    driver.get(data['sites'][site])
    driver.get_screenshot_as_file(site + '.png')
    driver.close()

json file

{

    "sites": {

        "facebook": "https://www.facebook.com/",
        "google": "https://www.google.com/",
        "wikipedia": "https://www.wikipedia.org/"

    }

}
