Feedback related to news articles posted on Yahoo
My feedback is related to the news articles posted on Yahoo and the choice of articles and viewpoints that Yahoo chooses to post there. You removed the ability for people to comment and voice their opinions on there and I understand why this was done. However, you if you do not want people to share their opinion, then you should not allow editors to share their own opinion either in news articles either, New should be news - the facts period. NOT their opinion. I get tired of reading article after article condemning certain people or calling them liars or whatever they are saying just because that particular person writing the article feels that way. And I get tired of ALL the articles voicing that same opinion direction. Now you can not even write a comment and stand up for the other side and that is unfair. And editor is NOT a judge, jury and executioner and should not be allowed to do that. Before the comments were turned off I would read one comment after the other of people angry at the editor for slandering certain people over and over and people get tired of listening to that. If you do not want to insight violence in this country then you need to NOT promote editors and writers who do exactly that. Yahoo needs to rise above this and stop promoting it like it is ok or turn the comments on so other people know they are not alone in thinking that what is being said is not ok. Allow them to defend themselves or remove any articles that are opinionated in any one direction when they do not know. They are assumptions. And comments that are made because they think it's the popular thing to say. What you do not realize and if you read the comments below the articles, is that there is 50% of the population out there that does NOT think that way and I think for Yahoo's sake, you should include those people too because they ARE people too and also have a voice that is just as important. Just because you only run one opinion of editors non stop, does not mean the other people go away. They are still there. Include them too so it's even. I bet if you did that and turned the comments back on that you find you would not have such an angry set of people all the time. A person can only take being poked at for so long. Rise above this Yahoo and think and censure the stuff you post....in other words, post the ACTUAL news and not an opinion version of it and if you have to go that route then post BOTH verions of the opnions so it is fair and equal to everyone who uses your site.
