Answers.com sponsored ads are loaded with viruses. I used to love Yahoo news, now I hate it.
Yahoo news is getting worse by the day. I understand Yahoo needs to turn more profits, but linking to sites like Answers.com is just going to **** people off, not line your pockets.

It takes some diligent effort, but I finally have sponsored ads blocked in Yahoo News. If Yahoo is going to ignore complaints and try to trick us into clicking on ads, I have no problem blocking them.

There needs to be a way to filter out all of the sponsored content and useless news from questionable sources. I have switched the Google News which is really just a news scraper. Much better and less garbage. If I want to filter through useless and questionable news, I'll use Buzzfeed.

Just switched to Google Home Page after 10 years with Yahoo. Sponsored ads mixed in with the news stories did it for me. I'm like the other poster, will stop by to grab my mail and the SEE YA!

Stop Flash immediately. Your latest security breach should have pushed you over the edge on this.

I've been on Google news for about 2 months now. Ads are fine, but when they are made to look like news, I'm not sure what brought me back today other than I used Yahoo as a launch point for years and years until the latest wave of Ads to look like news.

Stop posting "sponsored content" in the news feed so those who don't notice the "sponsored" notation don't think this content is real news. Content in these links are just what everyone has said, biased, self-serving, and can contain malware.
Does Yahoo's business model include a clause which states "Trick the public into clicking on disguised news items (same font, location etc) to generate revenue"? Slick, Yahoo...real slick...well, not really....

I don't i anything. I hate that you can't close it like all other ads. I guess they are a major sponsor so thats why you can't get rid of any Apple ads. I find this **** totally annoying.

Not only are all the ads ridiculous, it takes forever to load the pages when you go to the next one. I don't have 20 minutes to spend on a 10 page "article".

This is asinine Yahoo, over 11% of your home page is ads, mostly "Sponsored Sites" that are filled with malware.
Get this off of your site!

Best solution is to not click on yahoo provided 'sponsored' links. A catchy title does not mean quality page.
