Yahoo News: Breaking & Local 17+

I previously used the Microsoft News app because it was a clean interface with minimal ads and allowed me to select which feeds I would like to view. Sadly they tried to make their app a one size fits all design and stuffed every bit of Bing functionality into the app.

Yahoo News has a great clean design and is easy to use.

The content is something like 25% news and 75% opinion. You can’t comment on the articles which was the first red flag to me. Most stories clearly omit key facts to portray a false narrative so world and national events are related to the public in the manner they choose. Grossly liberal leaning and definitely a political tool. There should be laws to prohibit companies like this from claiming to be a news source when they release opinion based articles and false “reports” that intentionally omit facts. News should state all the facts not attempt to spin anything in any direction. Despite my political beliefs, I want a 100% unbiased and neutral platform free of any political motive to gain factual knowledge of events so I can form my own opinions. This app contributes to the single biggest problem in America today.

Yahoo news has always been left leaning, that’s okay because even if people disagreed you could say so in the comments section, and sometimes there was overwhelming opposition from readers. But now, comments have been gone for a while and they just removed the voting system so you can’t even downvote their overly biased articles. Yahoo has zero interest in creating any conversations they just want you to pay their authors on the back and tell them you agree. Pathetic journaling, I’ll just use one of the other hundred news outlets that are exactly the same and censor their audience…
