Yahoo is no longer my home page and I will not be renewing my paid account. Media bias is one thing, it is something else. Corrupt!
You have moved from somewhat tolerably biased to downright corrupt. And useless.Yahoo news will no longer be my hope page (there for no more ad clicks) and my paid account will no longer be renewed.

Okay, here's a new one: you know how Yahoo normally loves Ellen DeGeneres, so commenters can sing her praises all day but nobody can ever insult her? Yeah, well today you flipped it. Obviously, Ellen must have stepped on some powerful person's toes because nobody's buying that Yahoo and the rest of the MSM turned against Ellen merely for being one of the many, many wealthy celebs who still cut her staff's pay during the shutdown. There was an article acting like she was the only one, and the Yahoo moderator would not allow me to name all the other wealthy celebs and studios which had cut staff pay or laid people off, though they were wealthier than Ellen. If I complained about the biased moderator, that posted, but nothing else would. I had to agree to hate Ellen. It was weird. I could not even post quotes from articles or links proving my point. I was not allowed to argue with anyone who disliked Ellen. Now, yahoo's too predictable for this to be a homophobic moderator (though I'll go with whatever it takes to get you to finally settle on a policy of free speech in the comments section, something you should have had all along). More likely her sin was befriending President George Bush or doing something else leftists aren't keen about, so now she has gone from a media darling to the gum we are all supposed to step on. As one commenter pointed out, she has been “Trumped” (ironically, gone the way of another former Democrat the media once loved). However, the Yahoo moderator absolutely refused to allow me to point out the discrepancy between how the article (and Yahoo) was treating her versus how they treat everybody else in the world. Before she befriended George Bush, that behavior by your moderator would have been labeled homophobia, my friends. Might want to watch it.

Today, the Yahoo moderator decided I could not comment on, nor post links to, reports from the Center for Disease Control or US News because the reports state that a record number of American children have died from this year's flu. It's still flu season, but the Yahoo moderator won't allow me to warn anyone! It's apparently because these links also admit it is the H1N1 flu strain that has returned to kill these kids. There is not a news source that admits how deadly this season's flu has been without admitting the virus strain. What can I do when children are dying? How do I warn people? He is the moderator right now as I am typing this. Please replace this yahoo moderator with one who likes children. Here are the links I can't post or make relevant comments about:

https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2020-03-20/coronavirus-pandemic-overshadows-a-deadly-flu-seasonIf you have a child who dies from this year's flu, please sue Yahoo for blocking the information I tried to post in my attempts to warn you.

Yahoo also refuses to post any comment that corrects their misinformation. In a Yahoo Finance article where Yahoo had paid some guy named Rick Newman to claim he was an "economic expert", I tried several times, unsuccessfully, to post different versions of this comment:
"Rick Newman's entire article is all 'opposite land economics'. He literally pushes every single policy that failed us and created the Great Recession, as if he doesn't think we've tried those policies enough times. If America truly had a labor shortage, Americans would be over-employed, over-paid, and swimming in vacation time as jobs competed over them. One working parent could support his entire family, send the kids to college, and have money left over for retirement, as was the life of working America during the good ol' days before our current state of outsourcing (what Trump's tariffs are designed to reduce) and illegal (and over-bloated legal) immigration. When we have the economy we had back then, perhaps I'll consider Newman's absurd 'labor shortage' argument but, until then, this is just Yahoo's top brass trying to line their pockets by getting rid of Trump so they can hire illegals (at the expense of legal American citizens) in their sanctuary state of California."

The amount of ads and forced click views for articles 100% completely stolen word for word is disgusting. It is against fair use rules and standards to steal an article and reprint it 100% word for word, source link or not it is plain wrong and Rightlander should file against Yahoo for doing so.
I often remove Yahoo's affiliate tags when I am interested in something and I can clearly see its an affiliate link.

I agree the Executives at Yahoo are incompetent buffoons. I am sick of this liberal fake news. It just started in the last 3 or 4 months. They think they can change my vote to support this socialist/ communist agenda? HA HA. I am voting as much and as often as I can for Republicans. I told them when they were developing the pay per click model that a little company called Google was going to clean their clock. They laughed at me in their arrogance. Look what happened the are now hardly a speck on the map of search.

Every "news" source Yahoo uses is clickbait for an anti-trump agenda. This site isn't news, it's a joke. Jeeese, At least "try" to be impartial. no wonder Yahoo is tanking in popularity. It's Clickbait central and I am dumber for having wasted my time visiting it.

Totally agree with this comment. EVERY article you have on your Home page, be it Huff Post, Newsweek, Good Morning America, Salon etc. is liberal **** or regurgitated nonsense. Do you have some monetary agreement with the democratic party that you can't put ANYTHING on your site that may have a conservative point of view? Thanks for NOTHING!!!

I haven't seen a news story worth reading on yahoo in how many years is it now? Not one of these left leaning news content providers are truthful in anything they do or say, Yahoo needs to just get sold, only thing I use it for anymore is the search bar, that's all you literally have left in your business. No one wants you shoving down their throats your leftist rhetoric, MSM does that enough, just look at their **** ratings, why would you follow that? Race Baiting, Cop hating, BLM, Antifa loving leftist garbage, how about you let us choose what sites we want to see and block certain sites from showing on your news feeds. Guess you cant do that considering we'd be left with 1-2 sites tops but its better than what your providing us with now.

I concur, I couldn't agree with you more, just look at the choices for news providers on the page, NYT, Huffpo, Newsweek, etc its all filled with biased, fake, corrupt news stories. I honestly wish we had the old news back, where they only provided THE FACTS, not this leaning to the left or right, Yahoo's page and choices for news content providers are WAY Far Left, its sickening. All MSM is left, even fox news is going further left after the sons took over. I dont want you to pick a side, I just want the truth, how hard is that? I subscribed to CRTV after yahoo did this, wonder why america hates the left and yahoo news.

Totally agree. The biased and one sided reporting is fueling the fake news movement and distrust of the popular media. There is little true reporting...just left hate speech. I'm sick of it.
