Yahoo News Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of Yahoo, particularly its news segment, is significantly marred by perceptions of bias and lack of credibility. Customers frequently express concerns about the platform's political leanings, describing it as heavily biased towards leftist views and criticizing its editorial choices as unprofessional and propagandistic. Additionally, the removal of the comments section has led to dissatisfaction, as users valued the interactive discourse it facilitated. While some long-term users maintain their email accounts for practical purposes, the general sentiment reflects a growing discontent with the perceived quality and integrity of Yahoo's news reporting.

Absolutely biased
October 1, 2020

Taking just a quick look at the headlines lets you know real fast the political leanings of this site. This is absolutely disgraceful as Yahoo! Os a major company amd should not tout itself as a news source with its articles are filled with bias. Funny thing is, they are contributing to the creation of more conservatives in our country who read right through the mass liberal bias that is ubiquitous in the mainstream "news". Not only does Yahoo! News practice unethical journalism, but they are doing their own selves harm by promoting greater numbers and stronger voices on their opposite party.

I equate Yahoo News to being as factual as the cable channels that sell genuine jewelry and authentic oriental ninja swords.

Yahoo is obviously paid for and left leaning.
Ironically, the majority of its readers were opposed to their opinion.
Instead of opening up to different views, yahoo just deleted the comments section.
Very pathetic politically biased pieces, poorly written and edited.

Since Yahoo News turned off the comments this summer, I have noticed how nearly all 'articles' are left leaning. With the comments section, people were able to counter one-sided news pieces with facts. Now it has turned into leftist opinion pieces that cannot be challenged for validity. Media bias is in full effect. Yahoo is scared to hear how badly biased their articles are, so they cut off the comments section. Shame on you Yahoo!

Yahoo and parent company Verizon are totally out of line with their news. Most of their headlines have nothing to do with article they publish. They have gone so down that calling them tabloid news will be insult to Tabloid news. People used to write their opinion of their article under it. They got so many negative opinion about their articles, they removed opinion space. Instead they claim that they want to be fair. Yahoo news is one of the bogus news media which fuels hatred and divides our country. Shame on them.

Yahoo and parent company Verizon have completely abandoned truth and facts in favour of posing far left communist style propaganda. Yahoo has no credibility and the so called "journalists" are clearly hired based on their activist and extreme liberal views. Do not trust Yahoo for any sort of real factual and trustworthy reporting. They encourage only the most extreme SJW views and support violence in the name of far left agendas. Yahoo and every one of their reporters should be burned to the ground.

A little more relief from the 100% left-wing articles. Who is the news editor? He should be fired. They even got rid of the comment sections. I don't return. I'm also switching from Verizon (owner of Yahoo) to T-Mobile.

Crap bias reporting

News should not contain any opinions or bias. Your news is crap and may contain facts but is neither accurate or truthful.

Yahoo News Leftist Trash
September 18, 2020

I spent more time clicking to get rid of worthless so called celebrity news and trash articles than i did trying to sift through all the leftist propaganda bashing Trump. 99% of the comments were anti yahoo so they decided to quell any dissent by getting rid of comments.If you want to know truth just believe the opposite of what they are saying. Journalism with integrity is dead in America.

Wow, it is a shame we can't just go to our email without having to see all the "opinions" of left leaning liberal morons that Yahoo has hired to do their "news". How about checking facts first? How about listening to the entire article or interview - or, perhaps watching the entire video before making judgements. Sorry folks, but you don't pass the smell test. If it stinks like a liberal - you know the "news" has a hidden agenda guaranteed to try and appeal to your emotions - not your brain. "Come on" America - you're smarter than the trash Yahoo reports and hopes you will believe.

Opinion
September 16, 2020

Yahoo news needs to drop the news from the name and replace it with Opinion. Your reporters are bias and only report in a way that favors one political side. That is why Yahoo dropped the commenting section of the so called reports that they put out. Because they saw the majority of Americans DO NOT agree with their reporting. Even in this review I had to pick at least one star because zero wasn't an option. So I say zero stars for poor reporting.

Yahoo news is Fake News to the extreme. The stories are made up, then written, (terribly I might add), with the most vicious, left wing liberal slant one could possibly put on a story. It is like AOL News. Fake, Disgusting and written by uneducated, basement dwelling, keyboard warriors... This truly is as bad as it gets. Stay away at all costs.

According to yahoo, Trump has NEVER done one good thing in 4 years If you read all their articles. It's a disgusting, race baiting, left opinionated website. It's definitely NOT a news site. It's probably just as bad or worse than CNN.
