Dear Yahoo: Stop Already With Exploiting Racial Divisiveness And Hatred!
Yeah! You.
I've been a Yahoo user for over 15 years.
I've been a print journalist, reporter, editor, and manager for over 32 years.
Almost invariably, the "news" stories that you post and feature are blatantly and obviously deliberately crafted to upset and anger everyone who is exposed to them. This is made exponentially more clear and obvious in the extreme vitriol of the comments from readers.
I am certainly aware - painfully so - that you are a business and your goal is to make profit. Got that. But! What are you willing to do to get your profit? You most assuredly present yourselves as a source of "news," and actively promote the pretense of being "journalists." You also are most absolutely NOT journalists. The concept of objectively reporting facts is so distant from any even hint of professional ethics you might hold as to be of another very distant universe.
It seems obvious to even the most obtuse reader of your "news" items that you will certainly sacrifice any journalistic ethic or standard, and - in fact - are willing to actively and knowingly contribute to the destruction of civilized society.
You're not about communication. You're about destruction.
A question for you: If you help incite, inflame, and literally build the hatred and total lack of real communication among "civilized" beings and thereby significantly contribute to the collapse of society and culture ... what good will be all the "profit" in the world?
Is my view more extreme than you normally get?
Perhaps.
Is it correct.
Probably.

Unfortunately, most news media (not just yahoo) tend to lean towards what my high school journalism teacher would call "yellow journalism". One has to wonder why. Could it be that the vast majority of readers are attracted to this type of "news" instead of fact based information?

My solution too simple. It ain't news. Don't read it at Yahoo. No rigorous editorial examination if it's even as Seinfeld's episode 119th Elaine would say "sponge- worthy". Good enough for a NSA. Its just space filler for ads. Feb 19, 2015 WSJ article, "Yahoo today opened two of its services for selling ads–Gemini for native ads and Brightroll for video ads–to all 200,000 mobile developers with whom it already partners. The new offerings include so-called app-install ads, a popular and fast-growing ad format ...Yahoo claims more than 575 million monthly users on its own mobile apps" Yahoo makes the lucrative money by following people like FacePlate and others. Less content and more ads to come everywhere.

Why does YAHOO fuel the anti-semitism that is running rampant in Europe by daily postings of stories that belittle the only democracy in the Middle East? You are adding to the false and inflammatory rhetoric of the authors of "The Elders of Zion". You should be ashamed of yourselves.
