Yahoo! Content

I know Verizon also owns Huffington Post which is bleeding money. I'm guessing they moved some of those people on Yahoo site. Sad... In the past I could at least skip over articles from Huffington Post and others like them. Now that's all that is there.

Yahoo was once a great portal and email service. I have used it since it was started. Ever since Verizon bought it it has declined in quality, the amount of biased content is unreal now. In 2020 they removed the comment section from articles. Then they went full left on articles and nobody can even comment on it.

News is supposed to report all sides without bias, sadly that seems to be a thing of the past.

Regardless I'm done with Verizon products all together including our cell service. I'm in the process of changing my yahoo email where I used it. I refuse to support anyone with a lop sided political agenda like they have adopted. Get woke go broke, hope all Verizon properties suffer financially.

I totally agree with all the people that are making the same complaint. What happen to unbiased news reporting? It makes me sick every time I go online, I am going to change my homepage and email so I will no longer have to be subjected to the biased censorship going on by the main stream media including Yahoo. I can not believe what is going on in this country. I am not buying the B.S. you are all trying to feed us, and I am certainly not the only person who feels this way. The riot at the capital didn't happen because of Trump, it happened because Americans are tired the Liberals hypocrisy and censorship and move towards total dictatorship. There is so much proof of so much fraud in the election but like everything else you all just act like it is all just crazy and that anyone believes it is some ignorant white trash white pride piece of crap. Well I have news for you and it is real news, there are as many Americans out there that believe in our constitution and can see what has been going on as there are those that you have managed to brain wash. And if you continue to do what you are doing, you are going to continue to divide this country and that is on you liberals who have taken away our rights not Trump! Are you people really Americans? or are you Chinese or something? Give us back our country please!

Yahoo! News articles

This is what you idiots post after yet another piece of [censored] "news story" ……. Our goal is to create a safe and engaging place for users to connect over interests and passions. In order to improve our community experience, we are temporarily suspending article commenting.

This is what you put after obviously biased reporting. A story you do not want anybody to question. Whatever happened to just the facts? Why lead readers, or the sheep that read your [censored]?

Show the following to those that you allow to put stories on your [censored] site...

"Objectivity in journalism aims to help the audience make up their own mind about a story, providing the facts alone and then letting audiences interpret those on their own... Objective reporting is meant to portray issues and events in a neutral and unbiased manner, regardless of the writer's opinion or personal beliefs."

Not what occurs when I read stories on this site...

Yahoo! Blocking comments

Blocking comments is selective censorship by simply producing stories containing falsehoods and then preventing any meaningful dialogue to correct falsehoods.

Yahoo! "today" news section

There are usually about 40-50 stories that when you move your mouse over the headline, the story appears above all the the other headlines.
This has stopped happening. I don't understand why.
I don't have time to click on every abbreviated headline just to find out what the story is about as well as wait for it to load.
This was my favorite section of my homepage.

Yahoo! Bias

I resent the fact that Yahoo has shut out the comment section. This is what they do in totalitarian countries where the media is controlled by those in power. This speaks volumes that you do not stand for Freedom of Speech. I have been following the electoral updated count everyday which you prominently displayed on your website. I have read that President Trump was declared the winner both in Alaska and North Carolina. When I went to look at Yahoo webpage, the electoral update is gone. Why?

What do you expect because Yahoo is the most anti-Trump media on the web. I've never seen so much hate from a website! Everyday for at least a year negative negative negative comments about President Trump and his family. How awful that we're to believe people actually want all illegals to just walk across the border, get free health care and more, because, well why? Biden's a know pedophile and liar. Shameful this website keeps promoting this A.H. Who runs that company?

Yahoo! Your terribly biased opinions.

Every day for the past 4 years your articles have been so biased. I only see them because Frontier has your biased website on for my emails. It makes me sick. Today I see raving about Jill Biden's dress, which in my mind was frumpy, but never, never was there an articles that was favorable to Melania who dressed to perfection. It is so disgusting that I can't hardly stand it. When are your reporters going to see that there are a lot of us Trump supporters and conservative people that you are alienating. But obviously your website is so liberal that you couldn't possibly be decent about anything.

Yahoo! Taken people's freedom of speech away

Now that the election is almost over, does that mean that Yahoo is going to give conservatives their Right to Freedom of Speech back or does Yahoo plan to continue to make sure that only Liberals or Socialist views are represented? I was just curious how long Yahoo planned to take away the rights of some people and allow rights to only one group of people. I must have mistakenly thought that I was living in a Free America or something.

The owner being a member of the Communist CCP, you cut out freedom of speech. "News on Yahoo is set up to keep people comments and conflict facts from some who are in the United States "100% of freedom of speech was ripped out of Yahoo to disrupt election for President and boosts funding to Socialist Democrats, Or plain old and ugly Communism" We have to initial U.S. Sen. Joseph McCarthy or in Process of "McCarthyism". Every one who is communist the Congress and the Executive branch should stop working with Communists in America at all cost, and restore the people rights to Freedom of Speech.

Yahoo! Yahoo online news

I have enjoyed Yahoo news for some time now even though it has a serious tilt to the left. I have tried to utilize the "Show Less" feature in the news to if not eliminate at least minimize articles by onerous tabloids like Huffington Post which is far worse than most super market tabloids. In the last few weeks, now that the election nears, there has been a preponderance of anti-Trump articles by all the usual suspects ESPECIALLY the Huffington Post, the Independent, Daily Beast, et al. I know you might just not be able to help yourselves trying to leverage the Biden malfunction into office but your efforts are onerous, cheap, misguided, and quite offensive. If all you want is brainless liberal sheep reading your news, that just may be all you end up with. Perhaps that's for the best. Charge on nimrods!

Yahoo! The royal family

Yahoo wrote this:
"Prince William wanted to send Prince Harry a "message" with the 2019 line of succession holiday photo." The other day, "Prince William wasn't happy with the way the palace announced when Megan went into labor.

So much hate for William lately, not right!

· When you take on the responsibility of a journalist, to tell everyone the God-honest facts, you better do just that. Save your opinion for an editorial, because it has no place in the news. If you're going to write a news article and put your own opinion in it, you should explicitly state that it is your opinion.

Yahoo! Censoring our news and only showing News they like

What a disgrace. Big tech will not let any comments against the views they hold. They are editing our news and creating a "political gain for Demorcrats" and should be charged with campaign donations. This is a joke and should not be allowed. They own everything so they push only the values they like. Please STOP this. Hollywood and Big Tech need to stay out of propaganda. I am just sick about this.

Yahoo! Two prominent ads on the home page

Twice in a week Yahoo has home page adds orc stories that are outright scams:
1) last week and add that promoted buying Silver coins at $9.00 (When silver trades at $28) and buying Gold Coins at $28 (When Gold trades at $1990)
2) Today an ad about our Prime Minister Trudeau promoting for people to buy a bit coin robot investment at $250 US or $350 Canadian and make $6000 per day

YAHOO has a responsibility to ELIMINATE this FRAUD from their sites and especially their Home Page, or you could be liable legally for any losses a client could incur.
Where are your experts that should be reviewing these SCAM.

Yahoo! Biased content on yahoo

Please why? Do you constantly disrespect the president of theusa by only using his sir name not his full name or even his titled name mr president, mr trump you do not do this for his political rivals ie nancy pellosy (sorry if name misspelt) all it does is underline your blatant lack of respect for someone you do not agree with and your total bias against them. You also do the same when reporting on british politicians ie johnson not prime minister or even boris johnson it shows your lack of professional integrity and common manners and is the reason the liberal left loses elections and until you and your commie cohorts start to realise you have to do more than disrespect your rivals and show you actually have better ideas you will just continue to look weak and clueless and lose election after election. So in conclusion if at all possible at least in your reporting treat all political rivals with the respect you would expect from professional reporters of all persuasions and stop this idiotically biased anti democratic ranting against people who have been elected by majority votes and so have legitimate claim to the respect for their office due to them

Yahoo. You and your friends at Google, Twitter among others, should be put on trial for crimes against the United States. Meddling in our election process by repeating lies and using biased content. One day this type of action will return to you ten fold. Once the socialists have no more use for you, they will turn on you too.

Yahoo! News coverage of trump's covid-19 treatment

At the end of the report, yahoo felt it was necessary to tell readers not to votefor president trump on nov. 3rd! This is not news reporting, makes the entire article fall under the category of a political advertisement! Yahoo should now (!) be forced to register as a political organization and report this change of status immediately toany & all present & potential future readers of their changed status & the reason for their forced change of status!
