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.

Propaganda.
August 7, 2019

Yahoo "news" is basically the arm of the Democratic party, alongside with NBC, ABC, CNN, MSN and all of the other garbage "news" outlets. Back in the old days they have tried to hide their bias but not anymore. It's all propaganda.

I wish I could award less than one. Almost every article is so biased it's not even newsworthy. Somehow the writer tries to blame Pres. Trump for EVERYTHING, it's shameless propaganda that Joseph Goebbels would be proud of. It's not even "fake news" now, it's blatant lies and deceit... I guess Goebbels and Hitler were correct, Lie big and lie often and they will eventually believe the lie.

Disgusting site
August 2, 2019

Freedom of the press only replies to what they have to say. Don't waste your time commenting on a political post because if you're not a democrat supporter your comment gets deleted. I just recorded 30 different comments I made that got deleted but than made an anti trump post and it gets published lol. It's absurd. Not a huge Trump fan but I get it now. When an entire website goes that far left they need to delete a nobody's comment (mine) it's not Trump it's people like this. Had yahoo since 95, good riddance $#*!s. Can't even express an opinion anymore

Def is very biased. Like most "Fake News" is anymore... POS. I always enjoy reading the "Polls" that say "The american people overwhelmingly say President Trump is racist or blah blah blah"... Dem voters, how can you sit back and let the Dem Party represent you the way they do. Wait, unless you truely believe their bs message. Try thinking on your own.

I have been with yahoo for email for over 20 years. Back in the old days all the articles on the newsfeed were form far left outlets like "Vox" "Business Insider", and "Moveon.org". Now it's primarily The Huffigton Post and a few other far left biased places. All the articles on The Huffigton Post Start with something like "Trump Lies..., Right wing wackos..., Trump's racist rants..." and then offer up only opinion pieces with little to no substantive evidence for their views or 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.

Every single story is laughably biased with a leftist slant. I don't even consider them a believable news source now. Horrendous writing. Factually inept. Borderline slanderous.

Yahoo is full of President Trump bashing and has one or more stories featuring AOC at all times of the day. Yahoo might as well rebrand as yAOCo since it loves her and treats her as if she were the president.

Liberal propaganda
June 25, 2019

3 out of four political articles are anti conservative and written to make our president look foolish or to criticize his decisions. It's so bad you would think you were reading a news article in russia. They should be ashamed of calling themselves journalists. They are not journalists, they are liberal propagandists.

Time to switch. I'm tired of the sensational trash. Whether is the "Royals", politics, or the Kardashians. Even the new page is so horrifically biased and ineffective. Bye bye yahoo.

I've been visiting Yahoo for years but am tried of the Trump bashing articles that appear on the home page daily. Even if President Trump does something great, Yahoo will completely ignore it, and instead show several Trump bashing articles to try to make him look bad.

I am convinced that the people chosen to write for this excuse for a site are taught two verbs: "slammed", and "praised" and then told to go and trawl social media sites (Instagram and Twitter in particular), find the most pathetic stories imaginable, reprint them using one of the above verbs, and consider that a worthwhile job.

If failing to take pride in one's occupation was painful, everyone working at Yahoo would be on permanent sick leave.

Yahoo News is not news at all. It is a left wing propaganda machine that is trying to manipulate the minds and opinions of the American people. Real news would report facts and allow people to see all sides of a story.
