Stop with the FAKE NEWS and Unknown Sources stories!
I know people like to read their "feel good" stories, but can we please get back to honesty in reporting and following the Journalist Creed? There should not be so much ***** and reporter opinion. Just the news and nothing but the news. Stop using Yahoo for Sedition!

Its time we just leave. why should we continue to use and support a structure (yahoo, etc.) that is intent on demolishing America. If no one listened..... they wouldn't even be a problem anymore. Quite honestly, I'm just not interested in buying the propaganda that they are selling me. Besides, the comment section in my opinion fuels the fire, but doesn't really change anyone's mind or the outcome. if you want change, just delete your yahoo account. protonmail.com for a substitute email and The Daily Wire for news, Epoch Times (along with others). Goodbye Yahoo, Facebook etc. I wouldn't be surprised if THIS somehow was censored. It would be an honor.

How about finding out why people on Social Security aren't receiving the economic stimulus? Direct deposits were supposed to be made by the end of April. It's 5/6 and no direct deposit as promised. Neither Social Security nor IRS is forthcoming with any answers.

Here's the perfect example of this problem... with this article:
https://ca.news.yahoo.com/covid-19-recovery-plan-means-220721713.html
...which is entitled:
What the COVID-19 recovery plan means for masks, ATVs, universities and playgrounds
.... is of great interest to me on many levels. But it's not until getting half way through the article that it even mentions that this article only applies to New Brunswich. WHAT A WASTE OF MY TIME.
....IF INSTEAD YOU HAD MADE THIS THE TITLE OF THE ARTICLE:
"What the COVID-19 recovery plan IN NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA means for masks, ATVs, universities and playgrounds
... I NEVER WOULD HAVE CLICKED ON IT.
YAHOOOOOOO WAKE UP.... SET STANDARDS FOR THE TITLES OF ALL OF YOUR ARTICLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

So frustrating clicking on a Yahoo News article that looks like it may be of interest, only to find out it is a story in a totally different country that I couldn't care less about. Yahoo News can implement some very simple rules about the information required in your news story titles that could easily fix this problem:
1. e.g., a news story about a major move in the "dollar". So I click on it, only to find that it's about the Australian dollar. I couldn't care less about the Australian dollar. Solution: Implement a simple fix that standardizes your news story titles to always indicate which currency you're talking about: e.g., "Canadian dollar" or "CAD dollar" or "USD dollar" or "Australian dollar," etc.
2. e.g., a news story about a major drop in the average price of real estate. So I click on it, only to find that it's about the real estate market in Spain. I couldn't care less about the price of real estate in Spain. Solution: Implement a simple fix that standardizes on always indicating which country you're talking about: e.g., "Canadian real estate" or "Ontario real estate" or "California real estate" etc.
3. e.g., a news story about a major happening that occurred in a particular city (e.g., a riot, or a murder, or a new law or whatever). So I click on it, only to find that it's about a home invasion that occurred in Canton, Ohio. Nothing personal about the fine people in Ohio, but a story about a home invastion in a totally different country is not something I would click on. Solution: Implement a simple fix that standardizes on always indicating which city and country you're talking about: e.g., "in Toronto, Canada" or "in Canton, Ohio, USA" or "Sydney, Australia" etc.
You are reaching a global market but you are not acting like it. In fact, why not go a step further and allow people to filter their news based on the fact that they only want to see news from their country or city, or they don't want to see any news stories about murders, etc. Google is already doing this with some of their news offerings. But why isn't Yahoo stepping up to the plate to fix this problem???

How about well researched, honest, thoughtful factual news reporting. Eliminate liberal BS. Stop shilling for the Dems, libs, China. Your new format is awful.

Very dissapointed to see how YAhoo contributes to misinformation and confusing news. Too many time the title of a news (in the news section) is not what the news itself says... e.g. "Corona virus can be spread through fresh food and bread" while the article itself says it is not proven and probably not true... Shame on you!!
