Same articles appearing at the top of the feeds.
The same five articles are always at the top of the list in each section, often for weeks or months at a time. Why do I see articles from early December at the top of the US feed in mid January?

You haven't changed the Politics section headlight articles in WEEKS! I realize Yahoo! is so pro-Obama it hurts but enough is enough!
You haven't changed the Politics section headline articles in WEEKS! I realize Yahoo! is so pro-Obama it hurts but enough is enough! We get that Obama thinks if the Republicans just go away we could have a breakthrough 2014. It literally oozes out of his very being.

Do not turn the news page into a picture board!!!!!
It's slower to navigate,
pictures do not allow you to read quickly the title and decide what to read,
only 6 or 8 news are displayed on the screen,
kids will not read the news by making then look cute,
but young adults, middle aged and older adults will be turned off.It's not a matter of being cute, but to be functional.

Bias filtering
It appears that Yahoo's algorithms for determining who is allowed to post comments on news stories is set to filter out those with a more progressive bias. I discovered this when I attempted to post using my primary email sign in, and after several posts was unable to sign in anymore. I subsequently created a secondary account and was once again able to post comments several times, but now find that every time I "sign in" the comments module refuses to recognize my account. In discussion with others I have found that I am not the only one to experience…

The descriptive text that appears below your news photos cannot be selected and copied
The descriptive text that appears below your news photos cannot be selected and copied. The actual photos can be saved-as but the photo's descriptive text cannot be selected and copied for later pasting, (^A ^C ^V)
As an example see the photos at the below link. You cannot select, copy and paste the description text directly below the photograph.

Stop the auto play videos without having a stop, pause or silence button
I clicked on a news page and a loud commercial started in a video window. People were sleeping and I didn't want a video. There was no stop or pause button. when i clicked on the video a new tab opened to tell me about the product in the ad. I then had to close that tab, then close the yahoo tab. now i have to remember never to read yahoo news stories at work or at home with people sleeping.

why do you have adds that out play news videos? you can't shut the volume off stop it!
turn volume off the commercials while watching a news feed. it's a waste of time and effort not being able to hear the news video while a disgusting commercial or game is playing that can't be silenced. get it right yahoo, shut this garbage off!!

The 1st use of Dear Abby in the integrated News lists always contains the words "(Shipping and handling are included in the price.)"
The 1st use of Dear Abby in the integrated News lists always contains the words "(Shipping and handling are included in the price.)" Obviously a screwup. Maybe these are in the text box and do not erase when someone inputs an Abby question, and it doesn't' get erased as soon as a person clicks into the text box for entry purposes? Anyway this has been going on for MONTHS!

"Shipping and handling included," in every Dear Abbey

Search your own comments or for comments/users on an article upon which you commented
A search feature to find older comments under My Comments or within articles/news upon which you've previously commented upon would be great. It would make it easier to follow a conversation or follow up on one. Such a feature might contain options for either word and/or name searches.
