    I suspect that there may be a Yahoo moderator who is operating outside the bounds of fairness, using their position to censor viewpoints that differ from their own. Furthermore, it seems they might be permitting vindictive individuals to file complaints against those who challenge their biased perspectives, negative attitudes, or falsehoods. My substantial number of likes, totaling over 42 thousand for 7 thousand posts over time, suggests that there's merit to what I'm saying. Yahoo's conduct is tarnishing its reputation, transforming what should be a platform for positive interaction into something detrimental to the community.

    Reprogram your comment blocking. I write comment in the morning but in the afternoon I'm blocked. This needs investigated.

  • Old Dude commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why am I being BLOCKED from posting a comment? I can't even post the word "test" without it being blocked.

    Just how does the word "test" violate some guideline or rule, and how are you going to fix it?

    This is spot on! Just because someone doesn't like what you say and flags it doesn't mean it should be removed. There's no way someone actually reads the "offensive" post. I've had posts removed. These posts do not call people names or curse. Worse post I've done is to tell someone to "Grow up!" I will no longer read Yahoo! News because of this. Google news from now on!

    Just let us know which comment was rejected, and it would sure be nice to know why. Yesterday you apparently rejected the word "patriotic" in any context. Really, really annoying.

    Also, sometimes questionable comments give the option to post anyway, but now delete the comment before the commenter is able to make the decision to post or not, or correct some parts of it. Something has certainly changed on the website in the last couple of weeks. It seems to be more a broken website versus new Yahoo policy.

    Stop blocking my comments. Something is triggering blocking my comments.

  • Fred Peterson commented  ·   ·  Report

    Unblock my comments. Apparently, there is an automatic block after a few of my comments.

  • RANDY AZ commented  ·   ·  Report

    All my comments are rejected. Why? My comments are non-controversial, not hateful or insulting and fully comply with community guidelines. I appeal the rejection and it states Yahoo will respond to my appeal. Yahoo never responds. And comments of many others that should have been rejected are not. Yahoo, what is the problem.

  • Craig K commented  ·   ·  Report

    These 2 comments were rejected . I was rebutting inappropriate comments and misinformation being posted on this article. Why are people allowed to post agist and personal attacks as well as ridicule a disabled member of Robert DeNiro's family but my attempt to post my opinion to the contrary and supporting facts was rejected. The comments were significantly tilted to a pro Trump perspective and feel that my comments being rejected were censorship. How do I find out what specifically led to the rejection of both of these comments?

    Post #1:
    Brainwashed? Biden did not call Orban a great leader & give a murdering autocrat like putin props for being a smart man. Biden did not have over 4,000 law suits against him before joining public service, get indicted 4 times by a grand jury of American citizens. Biden was not cited for contempt of court because he couldn't control himself in a dignified manner, Biden did not repeatedly cheat on his wives including with an adult film star when he had a one month old son at home, then pay her off to silence her & prevent the public from seeing the morally deficient character who was running for president as the republican nominee and falsifying business records (a crime) in the process. Biden did not call fallen soldiers suckers, did not mock Nikki Haley's husband while he was deployed, did not incite an insurrection and commit election fraud by trying to usurp valid electors by sending fake electoral ballots to Washington in an attempt to steal the election. Biden did not spew hate language about legal immigrants inciting his mindless zombie followers to mouth foaming frenzy. Biden did not blatantly lie that a peaceful FBI raid to collect classified docs that he was hiding in his house an assassination attempt when he was not even home at the time & the FBI coordinated the visit with trumps security. Biden did not have covid low gas usage/high supply and grandiosely claim low gas prices as an achievement. biden did not block a bill that would have improved the situation at the border.

    Post #2
    Trump did not have 27 straight months of unemployment under 4%, lead an economy that create more jobs as a % of existing jobs than his predecessor, leading America to the strongest economy in the world through extremely high world wide inflation driven by 1) covid relief payments, 2) supply chain and labor shortages, 3) putin's immoral invasion of Ukraine which drove up prices by limiting supply of available oil and grain and 4) OPEC countries limiting oil production for the purposes of driving up gas prices and influencing the American elections. trump takes credit for low gas prices which in reality were driven by an excess supply of oil during covid when few people were driving and fuel supply exceeded demand. Trump's stock market/DJIA did not meet the DJIA under Biden. Trump put his own interests before America's by having his congressional minions block a bipartisan border bill that would have greatly improved the immigration situation at the border. 40+ years of military and business world experience and I have not seen a worse example of a leader than Trump. No dignity, no integrity, no sense of selflessness, spewing Hitleresque hate speech... ex-president trump is unfit for public office

    When a comment fails to publish for no reason provide a way to get the comment approved. When suddenly someone can not publish any comments at least tell them why. I get very sick of every time I turn around my comments fail to publish when I violated no rules at all. It is getting to the point of really hating your site. Why is it every month I get a notice from Experian that my yahoo email address was found on the dark web with the password when I change it every time I get the notice?

    Those cases were not thrown out because there was no merit. Those cases were not heard at all by corrupt courts. There is a difference. Not heard is not the same as thrown out.

    Your comment failed to publish.

    Many of the cases went in front of judges appointed by tRump. Does it really make sense to you that all 60+ cases throughout different parts of the country were all against tRump.

    I'd like to know why my comment was rejected.

  • Derrick Stevenson commented  ·   ·  Report

    Allow people to post facts. I commented that Cohen was convicted of perjury, my comment was rejected.

  • Leonard Ray commented  ·   ·  Report

    Start allowing rejections to be appealed again. I had a post rejected for saying some did not understand the subject and needed to learn about the subject. No insults or vulgarity were inthe post.

  • Eduardo Shanon commented  ·   ·  Report

    Stop with the not allowing me to post. You Americans are so big on First Amendment, yet I'm censored? What Gives? There are comments on here that are racist, homophobic, and worse, yet I'm reined in for being honest?

  • Jonny D commented  ·   ·  Report

    1. Flag/Highlight what in the comment is causing the issue. When we type out a comment that reaches the character limit and then it gets rejected, we have no idea what actually caused it to get rejected. This includes times when you get a warning before posting that what we wrote could cause it to get rejected.

    2. Bring back the ability to appeal comment rejections

    3. Show the comment that was rejected in the notification emails. It used to do this, but now it just says the title of the article that the comment was rejected on.

  • Judy Wafle commented  ·   ·  Report

    evidently I am banned from responding to news. Never told why since I do not swear or suggested any violent response. If I could eliminate yahoo I would but have been a user for decades and have the email.

  • george your words are useless commented  ·   ·  Report

    explain why you reject posts that are 100% copy and pasted from the article ?
    if someone misses something in an article, and someone posts the relevant section, are you afraid they may take it as an insult or what ?
