Stop posting Miami Herald articles
I'm tired of reading part of an article only to have a pop up tell me I have exceeded my free articles and I need to subscribe in order to finish the story. Stop using Miami Herald articles. This is absurd. I usually go to yahoo or google search & find the article from somewhere else.

Discontinue HIGHLIGHTING "articles" from extreme liberal sources like Huffington Post.
It's one thing to occasionally post from these extreme sources, but Yahoo HIGHLIGHTS them every single day! Be more balanced in your approach. I've been a regular Yahoo! user for nearly 20 years and you're about to lose me permanently to Google. You are out of step with your clientele.

Music keeps playing each time I open a story, it can even cover up the stories video
Every time I click a story some music starts playing and I can't find what is causing it.

Don't make Twitter the only contact for your journalists. Don't you think a Yahoo email account should be available.
Jon Ward isn't worthy of being a senior political correspondent if he can't even get the first name of TN's Dem candidate for governor correct. What sloppy, horrible, lazy, inexcusable work It is Phil, not Steve Bredesen. Moronic. Unbelievable but I'm not getting Twitter to point out a stupid, inexcusable error.

The Cheat Sheet
Not gonna read Yahoo News. THe Cheat Sheet has devalued it as a credible source. It now occupies 1/4 of the news base and is growing! No one wants to click hundreds of pages for speculative news & a thousand ads. I want "REAL" reporting. The Cheat Sheet is an example of FAKE NEWS by ALL accounts. Bye Yahoo! Listen to your readers!!
Thank you very much for your feedback on the Cheat Sheet. This source has been blocked from posting on our Homepage.

stop with starting several videos at 1 time all it does is cause anger and x ing out to another service
allow users to click on storied they want to see an stop forcing video popups that block the story you are looking at. and when two to three loud videos start at once. That is offencive and treats your users like idiots. Please stop this practice

Sponsored ad contains malware - ScanGuard is malware
This sponsored ad leads to a page rating antivirus software. One of them, ScanGuard is a well known malware/virus. It took me a couple of hours to remove it from my computer. Please do not expose us to known malware under the guise of antivirus apps.

Why do videos that I am not reading start in the middle of stories I am?
I am reading about Putin and some video for soccer starts 3/4 of the way down the page?
