Yahoo News is Horrific..Today I saw this 4th one from the top

Last edited Sat Mar 28, 2020, 07:17 PM - Edit history (1)

I don't know if it is there now..........As of this moment..5:54 ET..It is still there (take a look)4th down from top at this moment...I didn't know that Yahoo was like this...I will NEVER go there again, after I inform all people at my email that I will be taking email elsewhere

https://www.yahoo.com/

If you know someone who has an email there, at Yahoo Email, PLEASE TELL THEM TO REMOVE IT, ......that is purpose of this post...to get everyone to remove email from there..That will cost them a whole lot.
..............................And hurt their reputation too..

like this on the front page. One of the lead stories totally against a Democrat who is a front runner. For those who have email there, I urge them to remove it....Yahoo News is supposed to be .......NEWS.....this is not News.....this is awful, horrific slanting...I posted this to inform others who might have email there to remove it.
That will hurt Yahoo far more than Yahoo can imagine..

I just served on a jury about this post.

Sure it mentions a RW talking point, but it is merely discussing it and this person’s intent to distance themselves from it.

How are we supposed to discuss our reaction to RW talking points if we can’t even mention them? I got reported for this same nonsense myself.

How the hell am I supposed to talk about hell if I can’t use the word hell?

... I don't believe this woman, but this story has been on DU repeatedly, and is believed by some posters. I am interested to see how it's playing - including on Internet news services.

Yahoo News...is now Trump News..................................................................

..I will avoid it at all costs...as soon as I notify all my email recipients. I have been there as long as I have had email on the internet. That will change soon, and forever..

A few saved from as far back as 2001 or 2002..when I first got an email somewhere....Some can be saved and sent to another address, but most will be eliminated forever...When done, I will notify Yahoo why, and then move on..I will never go to Yahoo for any reason...It is poison..Also, I will tell associates & friends to do the same thing. I am sure that I am not the only one here that has Yahoo email..
