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.

Nothing but junk, race baiting, celebrity gossip pos news forum. I wouldn't wipe my dog's a$$ with it if it were in print. If they went under yesterday, it wouldn't be soon enough.

1 Star is too much for Yahoo if this site had a negative rating slide to infinity I would scroll forever! Yahoo only post Liberal garbage and plenty of their articles which come from Yahoo Reporters are cut and paste from what a Conservative politician or Christian has said, meaning they will crop part of a video or quote from said people and make them sound racist, hateful, anti American, and liars but when you read the full article from the source or watch the FULL video the message is completely different than what Yahoo portrays, CNN does this as well. Plus Yahoo had a data breach a few years ago and when I tried to recover my old account they wanted to charge me for support on a possible non guaranteed recovery when in fact it was their fault to begin with, I have lost hundreds of dollars worth of content that Yahoo failed to protect and they want to charge me to fix it. $#*! YAHOO and their lying greedy asses!

Yahoo news has removed their comment section and only posts hateful articles toward conservatives. They should be reporting on all news, negative, positive, left, right, whatever it may be. Allow people to make their own decisions and stop trying to control the narrative. It's disgusting and manipulative. I'm done with yahoo news.

Not News
August 28, 2020

The only reason I looked at Yahoo news was to read the common sense comment section. Their posted news is not news but pure liberal bashing and bias. I don't think I've read anything positive about President Trump. On the other hand, the democratic politicians, protesters, and anyone else who suits their rhetoric, walks on water. A complete waste of time to read unless you hate yourself.

The media gets called out for being fake, due to their own display. If you are going to write an article, why not write the facts, with no political/social/economic spin on it? We don't care about your feelings on a subject. When we know your feelings on a topic, due to the way it is written, you immediately lose your credibility as a journalist. I know it's only Yahoo, but Yahoo still claims to be news.

Yahoo news incorporates a slew of various organizations and sites that share one thing in common: A perpetual desire to spread disinformation to spark ire against groups, organizations, people, and or beliefs that doesn't fit their narrative agendas. With comments now being disabled due to the coming elections and people calling out their bad and intentionally designed behavior in order to stoke anger, lies, and misinformation at others that do not tow their narratives. It is nothing but a propaganda site.

Yahoo likes to spin information to spark excitement. This constant sensationalism is disgusting. Verizon, the current owners of Yahoo, needs to shut this down.

I enjoyed Yahoo News for years, but now the comments section is gone. No need to visit Yahoo now. Disappointed and missing the wide range of opinions and perspectives.

The reason why YAHOO has deleted the Comments is because it supported the claim that there IS, in fact, a SILENT MAJORITY who supports the current administration, but has chosen to remain quiet, until Election Day.
Since they have silenced America, they now post hyperbolic, anti-Trump headlines, designed to incite and infuriate those who simply read "headlines", and accept it as fact. YAHOO is DISGUSTING, and as transparent as my screen door. It is 100% biased, and is guilty of shredding our Constitution, staffed by whining millennials and Gen XYZ'ers, who need safe spaces and puppies to deal with homework assignments, and can't go to school in a snow flurry, for fear of... well, I don't know... WHAT? These are the loud voices of TWITTER, who think they outnumber the rest of us. YAHOO's comments proved that to be false, so they had to stop us from speaking. Well, YAHOO? You will lose.

"Yahoo News" should have a name change to " Yahoo Liberal Opinion". Yahoo's website is nothing but a Liberal Dumpster fire., Total heap of garbage. We all know they disabled comments because people were calling them out for their liberal bias in every story they published.

After being a subscriber to Yahoo News for the past 15 years all I can say is shame on them. I have seen Yahoo go from unbiased reporting to opinion based reporting. That would not be all bad if they would represent opposition to their opinion,, but they do not. Opinion is written as if it were fact, This is not news, this is propaganda... similar to all the news outlets. What was there to be so angry about - god forbid that we were at a all time high in prosperity, an all time low in unemployment, an all time low in crime... There is evil at work; an evil wanting to destroy the american dream. An entire generation of mindless screen watchers being brainwashed by a hate machine. Integrity is dead and the USA is on the brink of civil war.

YAHOO = Biased Joke
August 23, 2020

Over the years it has become SO obvious how biased YAHOO is leaning left... NOW, YAHOO conveniently stops their comment section before the BIGGEST election in history... They know what their doing, it isn't gonna work, and anybody with a pulse, and IQ above 5 knows how biased, and corrupt YAHOO has become... Race bait, identity politics, and negative ALL day everyday. Rinse Wash Repeat... SAD... The eliminating of the comments is so obvious, that's why it's comical, they don't want dialogue...!

Biased garbage
August 22, 2020

The only reason for looking at an article were the comments. The actual articles are laughable ignorant dribble. The race baiting white man hating liberal trash they put out could be dangerous to someone stupid enough to believe it.

My experience with Yahoo new has been very negative. The articles focus upon hatred, political partisanship. They appear to support the Democratic Party and the radical left over all others. The exception being pampering to the privileged. I suppose in order to further divide the nation, garner votes for Democrats especially during an election year. Yahoo news has become a dividing force in this nation.

Censorship at its best
August 20, 2020

At one time they published facts and the news. These days, they only post what thier politically motivated editors want. And now yahoo, claims to want to protect people by removing the comment section. Have we as a society become so sensitive that we are unable to conduct a proper debate among people of different thoughts. Resulting in a one sided censorship during an election year.
