“Homiest Home Page!”

Amethyst R.
2/20/18

This homepage is one of the best for utilizing space available to bring to the reader relevant headlines, interesting information, useful weather forecasts and so much more. Hands down one of my favorite search engines. Keep it Up!

Top Critical Review

“Entertainment”

Marc B.
8/16/24

MSN is nothing more than a Hollywood-Celebrity-Entertainment channel than "News" Clickbait articles that have nothing to do with the title of the article. Trying to find a different news source.

I watched live streams of the Freedom Convoy to get unbiased information, not to pick sides. I watched MSN misrepresent that story to present a propaganda narrative against Canadian citizens. I can now vouch from a place of objective facts, not opinion, that this is not a reliable news platform.

MSN have so many commercial adds, what create disaster on the website.It is hard to go thru the website, because adds fill up almost whale page and there is no room for that what you are looking for. No body read the adds, but they charge for them lots of money. That how they make money for nothing. Main subject on MSN is spreed on 10 or more pages. And if you get to the and (what never happen to me), you do not want to go thru next one.

Ad after ad after ad... and the few stories you actually do click turns into a wild goose chase of 20 pages or more. When I see a story that interests me I don't want to have to earn my way to the damn story. Cheap and pathetic way to boost click performance. MSN is one notch above porn at this point. Hideous!

If I can view one article on their page that isnt from the the biased W. Or N. Y. Post/The AP/ or Huff Post, it is so full of roll over ads that it is unviewable. Later, I'm gone, no mas.

Also, you ruined Outlook, its garbage now. Focused/Other? Why separate, its completely useless.

MSN throws everything at you on a single page. It's like visiting a middle Eastern market where there are so many products on sale, you wind up buying nothing. It's so confusing one can get exasperated while scrolling through their pages. Even though click-bait pages have proven very unpopular, MSN continues with this practice fine-tuning it to make it acceptable. However those pages can take 10 minutes to get to the point and are loaded with ads on each and every page you click through. To me this is very de-humanizing to say the least. Then they have the nerve to complain about Ad-B locking software. Tell you the truth if it wasn't for my ad-blocking software i would not be on MSN at all!

I have an average processor speed 2.20 with 8mb of memory etc
As the months have passed I have found msn have more adverts than most other websites hence website freezing erratic or just wont load. I used to swear by this website for all good news stories sports entertainment etc now its a joke. Time to find a new website which isn't cluttered so badly with roll over adverts, adverts which automatically start when you are not interested in them and video adverts which are the worst,
It not just opens but also takes bandwith etc causing the page to become unstable, you think with msn although they have to generate money I understand but this has gone beyond this and become greedy
As I say time to look for another website, preferably one without all these adverts which are absolutely beyond too many

Tip for consumers:
suggest if you want to actually load the website make sure you have plenty of gigs

Write something bashing Whites to test, i didnt get blocked but anything about libs, blacks, lgbtq+, progressive offenses.they block saying "something went wrong" or "comments didnt meet our guidelines". Whites need to sue this company and drag it down to zero and put them all in prison

MSN was an OK homepage at one time. It now is total liberal BS and ads, so many popups (even with blockers) Which is ironic in a way trying to make money while slinging liberal BS. Today was checking their weather which I believe is weather channel link. Was looking for temp's showed 77 with rain as I looked out on perfectly blue skies knowing it was suppose to be warmer today. A check on other weather sites just in case of stray clouds... nothing a stroll and gander outside nothing to all horizons and the predicted warmer 88 temps. THEY can't even get the weather right! I will now use google or bing (like their pictures and news tabs on the bottom). MSN went so far left, it left my screens for good!

Honestly I can't get over how $#*! the MSN news website really is.

- Journalists who sound like they have had a stroke just before writting each article. I literally have to go back over the sentences, "Wait, that doesn't make anysense?!".

- Video player embedded right in the middle of an article, with a video that has no relatable context to the article in question. Almost every article will have this. Thats if the video player decided to load.

- Articles that are literally like 5 lines long. What the $#*! is the point?

- Overall, the layout is ugly as all hell. The journalism reeks of armature hour. Pathetic click bait articles. I would give them 1/5. Trying to find a new news website that is better than this, I don't think it would be to hard.

Karen L. Pretty much said it all. Microsoft Bing is horrific and Larry J. With the insane commercialism here. ‘MSM' proof of purchase? This isn't a news page? No it's not! Do y'all not hear us? Sick & tired of being tired & sick of it all!

Proves this website is bogus! And unfair. I replied to Kevin poof* came bk to get something & now he's not here. At least it's fair on the comments of all sides. Reddit doesn't. If u disagree they lie to say it's against rules. However, right b/c it's bios & against anything political that coincides w/them. They R evil indeed.

MSN is not a news source it is a propaganda agency. They skew the media about Liberals and Progressives toward not so bad and act like conservative stuff is terrible. News people used to be about reporting the news as it happens and how it happened and let the people make there own determinations. MSN tries to make your determination for you. The word "news" should not even be in your name. All the TRUE news people that have passed are rolling over in there grave. Shame is how they should feel but you have to have a conscience which they do not seem to have, let alone morals and ethics.

I have used MSN forever. However, it has more glitches every day. THey have news articles but you cannot click on them to read cause it cannot load due to the darn advertisements. I had changed those settings, but it doesnt work. I have now spent 15 minutes to try and read a news article, it keeps shutting down. What a waste.

I would say I used MSN for the majority of my news media. That is until the last few years and especially the last year of so. Biased is an understatement. To be fair they are not alone. They join the rest of the media and social media with pushing their left agenda which in my opinion is designed to misinform, anger and divide the country. But on the bright side you have also helped to coin a new phrase. You have truly BIDENED yourself. (Meaning: Lied, cheated, stole and misinformed)

Opened an account to link to my bank account as I thought it would be safer to have a new and private address for that. Well, it got blocked for no reason in less than two weeks.
Opened another one, and the same thing, except it got blocked within 3 days of opening it.
The message at the webpage said I had been involved in sending spam or violated one of their terms.
I didn't send a single message through that account, and I have no idea why they blocked it.

"Customize" what a joke. Settings do not lock, page never fully loads, help is nonexistent. I had to reset my location every single day, as MSN had me living all over the globe which was causing apple to send me alerts that someone from was trying to log in to a site with my account in Norway, or Sweden, or LA, or Boston, or WhoknowsWhereastan. I am sick of messing with it so I killed it off.

I can no longer bear to have this NEWS feed on my computer. Every comment is politcal and racist. Even the stories where you think there is no way comments can be viewed as racist, have more racist comments then neutral ones. Its the worst.

MSN is the worst news agency i never seen. They only survive on propaganda news but not on real.

They always try to do sensation, sensation but nothing will be there if you watch carefully.

This is not the news agency but survive on propaganda & social community chit chats

This website is the best place to go for news online. They have all kinds of things to look at from sports to entertainment. I find that I prefer to go to this website then watching the news on tv because I avoid commercials.

How does a website that publishes only the most anti-Trump bashing articles day in and day out even exist. It certainly shouldn't. At least not without a large disclaimer that says, We hate the US President and will only publish articles that will bash him and the Republican party relentlessly. Take your pitiful site and shove it.

Soon as I see some program has been coded by Microsoft, I avoid it completely. These idiots at their rich Silicon Valley and other locations don't know sh*t about coding a good program. Their Windows 7 is buggy as hell. And that's supposedly the best of the bunch. They are all about spying on you, phoning home w/out permission and changing your software without your permission to further invade your privacy and MAKE YOU PAY! Bunch of scammers really from the very beginning by the THIEF Billy Boy Gates who made his billions by stealing from others. And this guy is portrayed as some hero in the Media. So much for the fake news, corrupt Media. GO TRUMP!

Website has been unusable for years. How is it possible to cram so many ads and promoted content into one page?! It takes longer to load than ANY WEBSITE, often freezes, and generates errors.

They haven't fixed a thing in YEARS. Website is 100% garbage.

MSN homepage reads like the National Enquirer. Very little actual news, and mostly gossip about what could happen if... We don't care about your biased paranoia about Trump. You scrape the bottom of the barrel to find the most ridiculous things to print about him. Why not grow up, and print as much good about him, as much as you revel in pointing out the most ridiculous irresponsible articles you can find where he is concerned?

If you click on a story on the front page, it takes you to a page with 3 or 4 lines on it. Within those 3 or 4 lines, you have to click on up to 6 or 8 things that will take you to other half $#*! sites that you have to go into to get the full story. By the time I click on everything im pissed.

Very sad day in America when the news does not report the facts but instead report lies. I have watched MSN Look the other way on democrats breaking the law and reporting lie after lie on republicans. This must stop and MSN must be held liable for their crimes against America.
