How anyone can still believe that a virtual rag mag like this is "balanced" is beyond logic or sanity. Even (discerning) democrats are finally waking up to the fact that the media is grossly skewed to the left. It used to be a joke, now it's mind numbing propaganda.

Misleading
February 25, 2021

Yahoo is extremely MISLEADING. Phony headlines, stories that never get to the point, doctored pictures and the list goes on and on. Yes, they took away the comment section because they are trying to stop the bullying but isn't lying to the readers another form? Yahoo is very hypocritical and part of the problem. I'm done with them and do not plan on reading anything more they have to put out. If more of us do this, we could put Yahoo out of business.

There is a reason why they blocked commenting. They were getting TRASHED by peoples real opinions and were getting exposed for what they really are! A propaganda Machine for the left! They are not honest and will stop at nothing to make you believe that everything the right does is horrible and corrupt. When in fact THEY are corrupt! Please dont waste your time on such garbage!

Yahoo news is probably one of the worst leftist reporting outlets there is, right behind CNN. They are completely UNBIASED when it comes to reporting any kind of news, and where did they dig up the journalists, from underneath rocks? Just awful, terrible writing. They are always bashing Trump and Trump supporters every chance they get. Yahoo News is a joke, the "writers" are like performing clowns in a circus, with no real story to report, just leftist ideological opinions. There is no real research involved in any article that is written by these self-titled journalists. In the screenshots listed below, you can CLEARLY see the writer's biased opinion; no real reporting, just a leftist spouting false claims.

Missing pictures, the wrong picture, missing videos and links and a new low effort take on even adding headlines as an aggregate news service. No matter what settings you use they will constantly bombard you with tabloid like news. They have a serious fascination with "influencers" which will often headline your feed no matter what other huge breaking news is going on with other sites. If it were not for the comments it would be a zero star review. The comments regularly debunk, correct and outright add the real facts that can't even bother to look up or edit. If your looking for a good laugh read yahoo news. If your looking for good news. Go just about anywhere else but this ads looking like news headlines disaster of a news site.

I wish I could give 0 stars! Yahoo news is the absolute worst! While giving the impression that I can select news sources on their site, I keep getting the same slanted, poorly written stories from far flung small town papers, and clearly left wing sources. Don't give me that option if you are not going to follow through. I want balanced news sources. And regarding your news sources, who is writing this tripe? Have your heard of editors or proof readers? I want the news – not the opinion or take from the little twit who is "writing" the article.

As a whole, I'm sure Yahoo isn't a terrible news outlet. But the headlines they give push notifications for, and that they have in their home screen, are filled with misleading headlines and false narratives. Again, not every article, but a vast majority of what they try to push out is not done with the interest of spreading truth, but rather division.

Clickbait Central
June 16, 2023

I kept avoiding blocking Yahoo articles from my news feed because I occasionally see an article I didn't want to miss out on. Every single time I get fooled. I click on an article with the promise of a video clip only to find an article with a dozen links that all lead to other garbage yahoo articles. In fact I don't think I have clicked on a single article in recent memory that I didn't associate with clickbait. It's really been sad watching Yahoo go down the drain. Please just stop Yahoo. You've outlived your usefulness.

Anything to beat up on the current administration.
That is ok, but do not tell the world you are NEWS...
Your opinion, Not news or factually based.
Just tired of a " NEWS AGENCY" lol...
Saying they don't have a dog in the fight. Just an outright lie.
The news today has lost all journalistic integrity. So sad.

Yahoo Tabloid Style News
October 24, 2021

They do not review their sources and frequently make mistakes. They quote only sensational items that will try to draw people in to their sight so they can sell ads for products that are shady at best. They removed all comments to remove any partiality in their reporting. Truly a tabloid.

Yahoo has done nothing but post "news stories" that serve to exacerbate racial tensions. Yahoo just posted a story with a former NBA player's opinion who has a criminal record. Typical reporting from them!

Puppet of the liberals
November 13, 2020

I attempt to be open minded and read a variety of news sources but I have yet to read a positive article on conservatives on yahoo. Most stories this year are negative Trump. Even Clinton, Biden and Epstein get a pass on yahoo. Where is the unbiased truth? Definitely not here!

The guidelines are full of it. While the racist ones get to stay, it seems like there is a glaring inconsistency in how they are enforced. It is disheartening to see that some individuals can freely spread hate and discrimination while others face consequences for minor infractions. This discrepancy in treatment raises questions about the fairness and effectiveness of these guidelines.

It is crucial for any platform or community to have clear guidelines that promote inclusivity, respect, and equality. These guidelines should be designed to create a safe and welcoming environment for everyone, regardless of their race, ethnicity, or any other characteristic. However, when these guidelines are not applied consistently, it undermines the very purpose they are meant to serve.

Allowing racist content to persist sends a harmful message to the affected communities, making them feel marginalized and disregarded. It also fosters a toxic environment where hate speech is normalized, further perpetuating harmful stereotypes and divisions. Such a situation not only erodes trust within the community but also undermines the platform's credibility and integrity.

Addressing this issue requires a comprehensive review of the guidelines and their enforcement mechanisms. There must be a clear commitment to combatting racism and discrimination, with swift and fair consequences for those who violate these principles. Transparency in the decision-making process is also essential.

Teenage Activists
January 17, 2021

When reading Yahoo! ‘news', it's best to acknowledge the entire team of ‘journalists' operate with the same objectivity you might find in a woke, coffeehouse, student union basement at a private liberal arts college. At times it's funny, more often it's absolutely terrible. Either way, you can't possibly take it seriously if you're IQ is above 90 or you haven't been indoctrinated by infantile neo-Marxist's who are likely still driving their suburban parents car.

How far they have fallen! For years Yahoo was my daily source, now it's just a parody that we click on now and then for a chuckle. Quality of writing and clarity is shockingly bad. Every writer seems to be drawing from the same tightly straight-jacketed leftist well. Hmm, maybe in reality there is only one writer. And it seems the downhill slide has accelerated since they banned the public from making comments. But, like the wolf who can't stop licking the frozen blood-encrusted blade even after his tongue artery gets severed, we already know the litany of excuses we'll be reading in their obituary - so sad, really.

Garbage leftist spew!
November 13, 2020

Yahoo new constantly posts headline news of nothing but Leftist agendas. Worst editorial skills in the industry. Hundreds if not thousands of miss spoken and or written english language and grammatical errors of any so called news source. False narratives are a daily chore of this terrible excuse for a news source. They discontinued user comments due to massive amounts of disgruntal former readers. Absolutely should never be taken seriously, they have lost all credibility...

Yahoo. Is. Fake. Trash.
September 5, 2020

It is astounding that Yahoo is even still on the internet it is so obviously compromised with some liberal nazi that it's disgusting. I just saw and article saying that president trump inherited a good economy from Barrack Obama... and the article was about Covid. They do anything they can including getting rid of the comment section. But guess what? It's too late idiots. People are awake in 2020 so keep writing your fake articles like Regina George writing in her burn book. You are losers and will continue to lose in 2020. #TRUMP #Sleepyjoe #bye

Yahoo just needs new Journalists in general, the stories are written out poorly, they dont fact check themselves about anything, and recycling tweets that are from 2013 is not journalism. But laziness in every degree, if thats how you think being a writer or journalist is all about, you dont deserve to use fingers.
