It is impossible for me to log into the comments section of any news story. I can log into my Yahoo news account in the outside frame of a page. But the comments section always asks me to login. When I press the "Log in" or "Signup to post" button, it brings me back to the same page and asks me to login again. Please help!

Fix capricious comment banning

PLEASE FIX THIS !! I am a longtime loyal Yahoo user who does not deserve to be treated this way.
On December 29th, per instructions from a Yahoo Help representative in Estonia, I filed a report, reproduced below, that for several months I have been blacklisted from commenting on Yahoo News stories. Although I have received no follow-up response from Yahoo, I have been hoping that the situation would have been resolved now by now; but today - January 1, 2026 - I made a two-word "Test comment" post that appeared to have been accepted.

However, after only a few minutes had passed, I received the by-now familiar e-mail message that "Your comment on Yahoo has been rejected," saying "Your comment on 'Videos released in Epstein files raise fresh questions about jail footage' violates the community guidelines and has been rejected"

PLEASE FIX THIS !! I am a longtime loyal Yahoo user who does not deserve to be treated this way!

Here follows the text of my report from 12-29-25:

Notify Yahoo News users of being banned from commenting, and how to resolve.

Ladies and Gentlemen: I just now talked to a helpful Yahoo representative in Estonia, and he directed me to this site for resolution of my problem: For more than two months now I have been effectively blacklisted from making reader comments regarding Yahoo News articles. No matter how respectful, benign or "vanilla" my comment - such as "good point," for example - it appears to post, but then I soon receive an e-mail message saying that I have "violated community standards" and my comment has not been accepted.

I have received no notice or explanation that I have effectively been banned from commenting, or how to go about resolving this ban, but it is quite apparent that this is indeed the case - even though I have always tried to be respectful and non-controversial in attempting - albeit unsuccessfully - to comment on various Yahoo News articles.

Please tell me how to go about resolving this exasperating dilemma!

Thank you and best regards, MarkT markt_a1b@yahoo.com

This site has become a daily run down of Trump's propaganda and attention-getting comments. I acknowledge that he is grandstanding and creates stories that get clicks. Please discontinue using sources designed to enable his chaos.

How about some balance in your news coverage? You should be embarrassed that you feature "news" sites like the Daily Beast. It's not news it's pure propaganda. I fully expect that your realize this and don't really care about impartial new coverage, but you need to hear about how half the country views you.

Almost ALL of your news feeds appear to come from radical left wing, "progressive" (so-called) outlets (MS NOW, HuffPo, The Guardian, BBC, CBC, NPR, etc...

Please STOP! It's so obvious that you're trying to manipulate or 'convince' the reading public, rather than report. Your own biases have the opposite effect, actually... Regardless, please stop - And offer perspectives from Right leaning publications - WSJ, Daily Wire, NY Post, Washington Times, Blaze, The Free Press, Washington Examiner, Free Beacon, BreitBart, NY Sun, etc...

While logged in: Y! News article COMMENTS prompt login in an endless loop. 'login' & 'sign up' appear at the top, while attempts to write a comment or even reply to a comment have 'sign up to post' button in place of 'post'. Multiple browsers on multiple devices - all cache cleared, all restarted, ALL Y! account settings reviewed thoroughly: to no avail. Useless Ai bot was, well, useless, per always. Any pathway through support/contact lead to 'unavailable at this time' [midday on a non-holiday in the US]. No private feedback even exists to notify you of a you problem. The single change I can identify is seeing, for the first time: Minnesota Privacy Act info. After all basic troubleshooting, multiple devices, different OS, different browsers all generating the same result: my best hypothesis is some new dysfunction relevant to that. Again, went through all Y! settings in every category - nothing about enabling or disabling comments. If you've somehow concluded Y! News article comments isn't compatible with the Minnesota Privacy Act: would sure be nice to notify customers of that. Already wasted too much time on an issue that isn't mine to fix - hopefully this is sufficient for it to be resolved.

Why I could not open reader comments to your articles? Any incorrect settings on my PC? Thanks for your advice.

In recent weeks my ram usage has shot through the roof with your yahoo news pages open. Your website has become laggy, and slow to load due to excessive ram usage. Windows PC. This only occurs when Yahoo News pages are loaded, and does not occur as a result of any other activity. I am a web dev for over 25 years. You guys need to lose some weight before I go somewhere else instead.

When you give instructions make sure they actually work!

I have been with Yahoo for over 15 years and use the news articles daily. Over the last five years there has been a dramatic shift in a political bias on your website which tries to hinder or suppress comments who have conservative views or differing opinions from Democrats/liberals, marking their comments as against your policies, when other posters with the same exact comments, do not have the same rules. My account was currently banned for God knows what and I am no longer able to sign into comments, which I think is absolutely ridiculous on your part. At one point you had commenting turned off for all your articles. If you can’t accept views from both sides, you should turn comments off.

Your website (check Reddit threads on this) often instructs people who are already logged in to log in or create an account. Fix this bug. I can always go to MSN.com for the same basic thing: news aggregation. You have nothing special, so fix this bug.

Yahoo, comments will not allow me to log in even after multiple tries and jioning community just sends me to the news sponors site which I do not want

It is 8:00am on Sunday March 8 and Yahoo has just reported that Russia has attacked Bahrain.
Russia HAS NOT attacked Bahrain, it is a typo on Yahoo's part.
How can a concerned Yahoo user contact Yahoo to report this egregious news error on the part of Yahoo and prevent Yahoo from suffering consequences for their error?

On Yahoo News, before I could block unwanted publishers in my news feed. Now I can't block publishers. Why?

I am glad we have a president to supports the war on Terror.

If all the panty snappers and sniff behinds would mind their own business and take care for their own lives and families, almost a third of the problems in the USA would subside. If all the bucket mouths and cohorts would blow steam in a position way, another third of problems would subside. If the remaining third would be responsible to man up, woman up and hold up the hands of our President of the USA, America would be great again in no time. Stop killing America from the inside out. The enemy is watching, waiting and laughing out loud. Stop being cartoons, you are so not funny.

Enough with feeds from The Daily Beast, how about a few from the Daily Wire?

I used to enjoy and look forward to viewing yahoo news , Now it is just a pile of sh*t ADS. When I try to click and read a news article I get a dozen or more ADs flashing on the screen.
If I try to “X” them out they still continue to come back and sometime the same AD. I have had yahoo email and have been a loyal customer but no we I am switching. It is no fun trying to red Yahii news…..

Stop posting about Trump, Yahoo News is becoming a joke with all it's Anti Trump articles, You must be feeling very threatened by Trump to have this many articles about him,

Make news more moderate. It is too liberal and needs to have articles from conservatives too. There was a lot of fraud in Minnesota that needs to be exposed.
