Yet the funny thing is, on almost all of these articles I bother to read, the comments are heavily, heavily skewed conservative. Some even make fun of Yahoo and the article’s author for the slanted story.
It’s pretty remarkable. Sometimes it seems I’m reading comments here on FR, except the posters on Yahoo are as witty as those here.
When reading “Yahoo” just say “Verizon” as Verizon is their owner and corporate policy controller.
And if you start to think Verizon is not in on the same political agenda as Google and Facebook, then why do you think the Verizon subsidiaery controlling YaYoo and AOL was named “Oath”.
I thought Yahoo died in the great tech Dot-Com bubble.
This began on my email about 2 weeks ago. I get about 4 a day. I just delete them. Haven’t read a single one, as I know Yahoo News is extremely left wing.
No Kidding
No different than MSN, NYT, CNN, Politico, Facebook...
One big liberal echo chamber.
The “Pocket” app that is integrated into Firefox also just pushes left-wing media.
I go through the Yahoo page when I get a chance and click on the few pro-conservative stories I can find - hoping probably in vain to drive home the message that there are a few out here who want those stories and not just reprints of Huffington Post.....
I’ve been a Yahoo/AT&T email subscriber since 2004. At one time I formed a whole news page of middle of the road (WSJ) and conservative sites. Slowly the choice declined as Yahoo declined. I haven’t paid attention to Yahoo news for 10 years or more.
I go to FR, Patriot Post email, Spectator, Pajama Media and Washington Examiner for conservative views. I keep up with the liberal headlines from major news outlets. I like to see what false premises they are using.
Doesn’t Katie Couric run the news department over there?
If you look at the posted comments on, for example the Finance page, the are always about “why do you keep shoving liberal political stories on the Finance Page? Where is the Finance News”. I guess the way ads are scored doesn’t care what presented.
So I quit Yahoo.
