MSN Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company is significantly marred by customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to perceived bias and the quality of its news content. Many users express frustration over the editorial slant, describing it as excessively liberal and filled with clickbait, leading to a loss of trust. Additionally, complaints about comment moderation practices and the inability to engage meaningfully with content exacerbate this sentiment. While some users appreciate the utility of ancillary features like weather and finance links, the prevailing trend indicates a strong desire for more balanced and factual reporting, alongside improved user engagement.

NO COMMENTS ON NEWS
July 19, 2017

MSN has decided the public can no longer comment on news articles. This is just one more step to taking the voice away from the people.

Should be Zero
July 3, 2017

Can we get another company to do a News Page instead of MSN. They stink. I don't want entertainment section but evidently I must have it. I hate the headlines as it is not fair but slanted to an agenda. It is all so bad!

There was a time in our country when news organizations actually cared about providing accurate, unbiased coverage of events. Reporters like Walter Cronkite and Tom Brokaw had integrity... you could trust them. Sadly, MSN has taken biased reporting to a whole new level of dishonest and manipulative news coverage. Their articles are deliberately skewed to conform to their ultra-liberal agenda. You can't trust anything on their site. Additionally, they trash up their site with scores of spam articles that are immediately recognizable due to their horrid grammar. Does MSN really believe the public is so obtuse as to trust their skewed and manipulative reporting? They obviously don't care about integrity, but they apparently also don't care about the damage they are doing to our country by polarizing the public with their fabricated half-truths and deliberate bias. My PC automatically opens to MSN's homepage but I immediately leave. They have established themselves as a wholly untrustworthy organization.

MSN puppets
May 18, 2017

Where to begin? These modernist liberals will only publish their view, their bend. Currently, their relentless condemnation of president Trump, without investigation and evidence, is proof positive that these anti-American journalists are all about agendas and not truth. I will not subscribe to anything MSN. They will never be my news source or homepage--I keep my mind pure of lies and hidden agendas. They and other lying sources are a big part of the cause of the division in our country. Real losers.

Liberal bias
May 15, 2017

I can't believe how you do not report the facts from the IRS scandal to Clinton Foundation to the Russian Collusion! Do we really want Americans spied on and being unmasked? I think Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddox are incapable of being a reporter. Fire them & get real! Obama was the worst president ever. History will prove that.

I'm in shock!
April 22, 2017

I LOVED msn for years, until some things weren't adding up, so I decided to try fox and I feel so betrayed by msn, all the negative talk and the hate. I used to be all for democrats for years and now seeing how they are acting as well as the media, its disgusting! The only world that comes to my mind is they are deranged! I can't believe I have to fear the left now. FOX is the truth, everyone needs to know the TRUTH! This is our lives that matter! What a shame I loved Rachael meadows until I found out the real truth of everything!

Blocked my account
February 25, 2017

Opened an account to link to my bank account as I thought it would be safer to have a new and private address for that. Well, it got blocked for no reason in less than two weeks.
Opened another one, and the same thing, except it got blocked within 3 days of opening it.
The message at the webpage said I had been involved in sending spam or violated one of their terms.
I didn't send a single message through that account, and I have no idea why they blocked it.

Ad after ad after ad... and the few stories you actually do click turns into a wild goose chase of 20 pages or more. When I see a story that interests me I don't want to have to earn my way to the damn story. Cheap and pathetic way to boost click performance. MSN is one notch above porn at this point. Hideous!

Content of items

6/24/15

Total Bias, and Junk news full of Lies and Deception. What happened to truth in Journalism.
Most of the items are banal and full of bias propaganda. Not real news. If you remove the ten or fifteen BIAS main articles, there would be nothing. In a nutshell, nothing more than junk food for the brain, a complete waste of information.

Recently, MSN began a very aggressive campaign to place more spam like ads on the home page, having managed to pay to "white-list' many paying advertisers. After installing an ad blocker to control this overwhelming annoyance, MSN is waging a new campaign to try to force me to add their advertisers to my white-list of ads I want to receive, similarly but even more aggressively than the repugnant Windows 10 campaign, filling nearly half the news feed pages with requests to modify the d blocker to allow their paid advertisers. Looks like time to find a new home page. Microsoft has gone to Hell in a hand-basket!

Pay attention to the way the candidates are depicted on the MSN site. Every picture of Hillary makes her look, resolute and presidential, every picture of Donald makes him look angry and crazed. MSN is the propaganda panda!
