Yahoo "news" is a steady stream of poorly written left wing propaganda that does not even remotely approach the truth or any credibility. The articles are so far to the left no sane person would believe anything contained within them and the writing so poor that it appears to be composed entirely by first year college students

I am convinced that the people chosen to write for this excuse for a site are taught two verbs: "slammed", and "praised" and then told to go and trawl social media sites (Instagram and Twitter in particular), find the most pathetic stories imaginable, reprint them using one of the above verbs, and consider that a worthwhile job.

If failing to take pride in one's occupation was painful, everyone working at Yahoo would be on permanent sick leave.

If I were teaching a class about propaganda besides using Hitler and Stalin I would use Yahoo as a case example. Their "news" is obvious far left wing propaganda designed to influence weak minded readers. They will not allow opposing viewpoints and have redesigned their entire site to make sure only their views are heard. They should be shutdown completely.

Yahoo sucks
January 3, 2023

My account was flagged to the point that every comment I made was removed, regardless of the fact that others used the same exact language and now I cannot see comments, much less post one. They're upset because I reported several bigoted and racist comments per day and chastised them for not being fair and equitable in their censorship. Right-wingers complain they're being censored; however, it happens to those on the left side of the political aisle as well. They get their feelings hurt when you question their dubious practices and biases.

There's a reason Yahoo took away their comment sections... they got tired of the vast majority of posters calling them out on their leftist propaganda garbage. It's not even "thinly veiled"... it's embarrassingly obvious how biased they are. They make excuses for liberals and Democrats and vilify anything that is conservative, Republican or Trump. You gotta be a real moron to read Yahoo News... and an even bigger moron to work there.

Wow, it is a shame we can't just go to our email without having to see all the "opinions" of left leaning liberal morons that Yahoo has hired to do their "news". How about checking facts first? How about listening to the entire article or interview - or, perhaps watching the entire video before making judgements. Sorry folks, but you don't pass the smell test. If it stinks like a liberal - you know the "news" has a hidden agenda guaranteed to try and appeal to your emotions - not your brain. "Come on" America - you're smarter than the trash Yahoo reports and hopes you will believe.

Garbage
June 10, 2021

Now the comments section is gone it's just clickbait, most of the stories are not worth the click. They used to have several anti Trump articles a day, and they still cannot leave him alone, don't they know Biden is President. He of course can do no wrong in Yahoo world.

Def is very biased. Like most "Fake News" is anymore... POS. I always enjoy reading the "Polls" that say "The american people overwhelmingly say President Trump is racist or blah blah blah"... Dem voters, how can you sit back and let the Dem Party represent you the way they do. Wait, unless you truely believe their bs message. Try thinking on your own.

Frankly Yahoo News has always been left-leaning garbage, but recently they decided to ramp up their fake news efforts by disabling comments because everyone keeps $#*!ting all over their awful news coverage and they don't seem to like it. I find it convenient that they've decided to remove all opposition 100 days before the election. Clever, and evil. The use of vague and opinion based verbiage is appalling. "Could, might, perhaps, sources, unnamed sources, sources close to, if" these are all buzzwords that show that Yahoo is not an objective source and should not be relied upon to deliver fact-based news. It's pervasive and it's the worst kind of subversion of out rights and freedoms.

Yahoo news is great for the latest celeb gossip including the latest bikini pictures of your favorite reality TV stars. Where it falls woefully short is in actual news. Yahoo! Regularly promotes party politics and tops headlines with opinion pieces disguised as facts. This daily and constant barrage of slanted information is clearly intended at its most innocent to tilt the political narrative or possibly at its most sinister intentionally mislead the public. Yahoo! News headlines are not a credible source of news but rather a sounding board or echo chamber for those leaning or far left.

Yahoo is a dump
December 8, 2020

I used to like yahoo for the free email and occasionally read the news. BUT now all I see is fake news by bunch of crazy liberals. Why? How did this happen? Yahoo News is now a dump. Just like California and Seattle. Bunch of liberals repeating lies and thinking people will believe. Actually some stupid people do like Mary L. Who says trump makes a mess of the world. Like what exactly? Can someone be specific? I see myself as politically neutral. WHY? Why does the mainstream media only talk bad about one party and make the other party look like a saint? ALL politicians are corrupt. Especially Biden. Why cover for him? If Trump or Biden did something wrong, I want to see them behind bars!

Don't take my word for check it out for yourself!
The first big lie is calling themselves a news source.
If you really want to get an idea of how news is presented in a government controlled dictatorship
Just belly up to the bountiful load of manure brought forth by Yahoo for the unthinking masses!
Almost every day the bulk of their product are pure hit pieces that attack any and all opposing viewpoints.
Not to mention the large amount of just plain old bull$#*!.
Just remember if it does make it to the internet via Yahoo you had better take it with a lot of grains of salt!

Disgusting site
August 2, 2019

Freedom of the press only replies to what they have to say. Don't waste your time commenting on a political post because if you're not a democrat supporter your comment gets deleted. I just recorded 30 different comments I made that got deleted but than made an anti trump post and it gets published lol. It's absurd. Not a huge Trump fan but I get it now. When an entire website goes that far left they need to delete a nobody's comment (mine) it's not Trump it's people like this. Had yahoo since 95, good riddance $#*!s. Can't even express an opinion anymore

The overt bias against anything conservative puts them on a par with CNN as a joke! And to stop comments just before election is only another part of yahoo's $#*!ed attempt to stifle conservative views!

Yahoo news incorporates a slew of various organizations and sites that share one thing in common: A perpetual desire to spread disinformation to spark ire against groups, organizations, people, and or beliefs that doesn't fit their narrative agendas. With comments now being disabled due to the coming elections and people calling out their bad and intentionally designed behavior in order to stoke anger, lies, and misinformation at others that do not tow their narratives. It is nothing but a propaganda site.

Yahoo News Leftist Trash
September 18, 2020

I spent more time clicking to get rid of worthless so called celebrity news and trash articles than i did trying to sift through all the leftist propaganda bashing Trump. 99% of the comments were anti yahoo so they decided to quell any dissent by getting rid of comments.If you want to know truth just believe the opposite of what they are saying. Journalism with integrity is dead in America.

Horrible news topics, inept writers and an overall mockery to what a news site should be. Who comes up with this junk? Are these people payed to research the same stories over and over again? Even the comments have been disabled. Most likely due to the negative reactions of the majority of people reading these ‘news' stories which is just gibberish vomited forth by blank, vacant morons sitting in front of their computers.

One star only because its the lowest possible option.
Do you want ONLY garbage trash talking articles and leftist propaganda? You'll find it on yahoo!
Only allowing comments on articles that serve no value yet pushing out non stop Racist and Anti-Trump articles dont allow comments? What exactly are you afraid of?

To any person that works for Yahoo, get a real job. What you've done with your education is a waste, please don't ask my taxes to pay off your loans, especially if this is what you do for a living.

No Credibility
April 10, 2020

Yahoo News displays so much progressive bias, their articles can no longer be considered journalism. It's hard for me to believe that any of their contributors have ever taken any journalism ethics courses. Most articles are about creating a narrative as opposed to presenting facts.

Date of experience: April 10, 2020
