Since DomainList is a csv.reader object what made you think you could 
call it with a string argument? You were not doing that previously?

Which is true, and should be obvious how to fix. Stop calling it.
That means don't have parentheses after it.

You are not importing the csv as 'r' you are opening your file as 'r'.
This has nothing to do with the error.
That is because you are calling a non callable object.

Can you tell us how you managed to get that second error?
The interpreter should have stopped after the first error so you
should never get a second error. You must have modified the
code in some way.

You would need to show us the actual code you ran to reach the print 
statement, otherwise we can't begin to guess what might be causing the 
syntax error.
