Remove unreliable information/ misinformation from news feed
In the news section. It would be nice if we could filter out news from unreliable sources. I mean Buzzfeed, Huffington Post, etc. The are not reliable news outlets, and yet my news feed is full of them. Some are misinformation, but many are just blatant lies, and frankly I am sick of seeing them. Please inform me as to how I can remove these from my news feed.

Allow all viewpoints. Not just the ones you agree with
You should allow all points of view in your echo chamber. People that are critical of the left and it's policies. Instead you stifle debate, censor comments, flag opposition and in general, create a false sense of approval. People need opposition to either solidify their stances or question if what they are being told is truth.

I want to get rid of some extremely slanted "news" sources such as Huffington Post. How do I do that?
Some button next to each suggested article in the newsfeed, to say that one wants more or less from this provider. I think we used to have this before... I really do NOT want to see those moronic articles from the propaganda site Huffington Post - I am happy to have a broad range of political views, but I want it from serious sources, not that silly rag.

remove details from headlines
Could you please stop posting the full graphic details of a horrendous story in the headlines of the newsfeed. I would like the option of not reading the awful, triggering details of what some people have done to their children or pets.
it's a disgusting habit. don't need the graphic details, just tell me someone was arrested for doing something horrible. I'd like the choice to not be traumatized by the specifics. seems reasonable. thank you1040th ranked -
Allow users to deselect tabloid sources from their news feeds
There are a few reputable sources of information (AP, UPI, Reuters) and they're buried by the numerous tabloid sources (Buzzfeed, Politico, HuffPost, Daily Beast etc.). The old format allowed users to filter out sources they didn't want to see but there appears to be no options in the new format.

Notification icon
For comments, the notification icon opens up replies and likes to our comments to articles but when clicked, it does not take the reader to the comment. It just takes it to the top comment in the article. Change it to where it links to the actual comment so we can reply.

Здравствуйте! Предлагаю Вам рассказать о моём предложении, которое может принести триллионы долларов Соединённым Штатам Америки.
Sorry: Translated from Russian using Google Translate.
Good afternoon!
My name is Alexander Petrovich Rodionov. I am 58 years old. I live in the Russian city of Ulan-Ude, near Lake Baikal.
I ask your publication to publish my open letter to the Federal Reserve System and the Government of the United States of America, as well as (if possible) other letters that I am attaching to this letter.
If you can fulfill my request, and there is a positive reaction from American leaders, I promise to provide you with all (non-secret) information on this issue, as a matter of priority.…1040th ranked -
Fix weather report
Why does your weather report keep changing my city to the wrong one 30 miles from me? I keep changing the pin and nothing happens. I can't even get an accurate weather report from your site.

Please bring back source filtering and give users more control
I've used Yahoo News feed for years, but removing the “Show Less Like This” option and constantly pushing clickbait and ideologically one-sided sources is driving me away. I want balanced news and the ability to control what I see. If this doesn't change, I’ll stop visiting Yahoo entirely.

Improve the look and function
2 things for the News page - 1. Please set a link to the original source in headlines. 2. Dates would also be nice. Even something like "2 days old", etc. Right now, it's hard to get to the OG source of the stories (ex: Buzzfeed, Wash Post, Newsweek). It's also tedious checking the News page more than once a day because of how stories are not lined up by date. Finally, the page is not really pleasing to the eye. I often just skip Yahoo News and go to other sources because of these issues.

Include more background, feedback and Moderate and Conservative POV's in your articles and OP Eds
Good afternoon. I have been a Yahoo reader and email holder for over 20 years. Even an avid reader. I am a bit of a News junkie; I really enjoy reading your articles and opinion pieces about Current Events, people in the News, etc., as well as the Historical pieces - although less the Historical ones. Your Writers and Editors have a great way, that I really like, of writing and editing that conveys the pertinent data with enough background and context to help your readers get to the heart of the story and understand the issues.
This much you…1040th ranked -
STOP USING PEOPLE MAGAZINE. Repetitive repetitive junk about people that no one knows/cares about.
STOP USING PEOPLE MAGAZINE AS A NEWS SOURCE. They are only repetitive articles about people nobody knows or cares about! Example: Brittany Mahomes.

Stop the Hatred in the Childish News
You're like the children that didn't get their way, but even children eventually wear out after their tantrum is over. You people never quit! Certainly you can find something nice to say about our President? You used to write to all the people and it was just facts. Now you manufacture lies and misinformation to pass around. It started with Russian collusion, Stormy Daniels, the Kook named E. Jean Carroll and one of her many **** accusations against powerful men, then it was the Good People on both sides, the medical blood bleach became Chlorox, and the bloodbath comments. It's…

Informing the public about true hardships surviving in todays economy.
As an Uber driver, I would like the public to know exactly how bad Uber, "screws" their drivers in the state of Florida. There are so many "unfair" commissions, trips, & rules & regulations, that hamper drivers' income, & operating costs that the public needs to be aware of. I am sure Florida is NOT the only state that get's treated unfairly & "screwed" by uber.
