It has been over 1 1/2 years since Yahoo stopped allowing comments on news events because it wants to create an engaging place for users to connect over interests and passions. But there is no place to engage in anything. Meanwhile, the quality of its "articles" is lower than whale feces at the bottom of the ocean. Where is the promised "place for users to connect over interests and passions"?

Is it coincidental hat while Biden's popularity wanes by the hour, Yahoo allowed less and less comments relating to stories about him. That wouldn't have happened if he had lost to Trump I'll betcha.

Yahoo is Portal Website. A postal website invites you to visit websites where the original story appeared. Stories that appear on Yahoo, have been printed on other sites first, then Yahoo imports those stories for you to read. Some of these other sites offer commenting and voting on comments. Most will want you to register your email before you can comment.
Paranoia and fear usually do not come with the stories. You supply those yourself.

A friend of mine says he can see Yahoo reader comments but I cannot. He thinks I have been blacklisted due to my political leanings. We have same political beliefs which are right of center. What is up? Yahoo/Verizon now totalitarian communist front?!

So glad yahoo.com is treating us like we live in North Korea or China......Not......We live in America where we have a US Constitution which guarantees freedom of press and free speech. But I guess the communist dictators of yahoo see it a different way.

Stop picking and choosing which articles you allow commenting for and which ones you don't. Either eliminate comments altogether or allow commenting on all articles.

Re-instate the ability to comment period. I have nothing more to add to all the good points posted in support of resuming the comment feature.

The argument over whether to resume comments should be evident in the many responses saying free speech is being violated. Say whatever you want in your own house, I really don't care. This platform is outside your home and I expect you to act as if you are in a public space. Many times this platform was used for racist rants and hate to spread, If you think it is best for your kids (and everyone elses)to read hate propaganda at such a young age, what do you think they will be like in 20. If you have considered that kids will read it, and still want comments back, you are self centered and irresponsible.

It’s St. Petersburg, Florida and Saint Petersburg, Russia, as any good editor worth his vodka would know. St. Petersburg is not in Russia as reported in todays piece regarding Rep. Cawthorn’s introduction to his soon to be ex-wife. That’s why the comments section should be restored to news articles. Someone needs to teach these kids how to edit. 12/30/2021

Though I miss the occasional funny comment or comment with links to a more in-depth story, I like it now more without comments. Nice and quiet without the haters. Please keep the comments off.

I find it very sad that we are not aloud to post our response to so many articles that you have on here , if you truly want to know how others feel you will allow it to happen again
It all seems so very one sided . just listen to the voice of all of the people -

Yahoo, your a bunch of chickenshits for not allowing your followers to comment. Your giving your opinion and no one else can give theirs??? Typical liberal move!

Sick of Yahoo's obvious censorship of we the people's voices on your COVID articles, which are so full of propaganda and lies about what is really going on and the REAL science of microbiology, virology, vaccinology, and immunology. Decades of research show natural immunity is far superior to vaccine immunity. Yahoo's "journalism" is utterly appalling and obviously pandering to moneyed interests. Stop. Being. Evil. As per Rana Foroohar's "Don't Be Evil."

Why does Yahoo feel it appropriate to censor comments while simultaneously fighting for free speech for the media? I also wonder if Yahoo management understand the meaning of the word "temporarily".
