I just took a look at the Yahoo homepage. (vanity)

The Yahoo homepage features five top stories at a time, each with a picture. For the last week or so I've noticed that one of the five top stories was usually article slamming Trump in some way.

But there are now two such articles up as I post this. One has the new London mayor condemning Trump's "playbook". The other has "experts" denouncing Trump's economic policies.

Imagine that. Yahoo's homepage is not supposed to be a branch of the DNC. It's supposed to be a news site. Yet with all that's going on in the entire world, two out of their top five articles just happen to be critical of Trump.

The propaganda campaign is just beginning. I wonder how long before Yahoo ramps it up to every article being critical of Trump.

It will get worse. A combination of Orwell’s 1984 and Fahrenheit 451. Destroy old information, manufacture new approved information. If you want to express the truth, you will need pre-approval.

You're not missing anything. I liked their free online Texas Hold'em game, but they are shutting it down later this month. Probably to focus all their energy on smearing Trump.

I only use YAHOO for their sports section, but since they revamped it a year or so ago, it is garbage now...

Yahoo, the DNC, the RNC - the same people own all of them. And they will go to any length to make sure things stay that way.

The Yahoo homepage has been very critical of Trump for some time now.

I learned a long time ago to never go to Yahoo’s home page as it will only piss me off to do so.

"The News" has been a branch of the DNC for longer than you have been alive.

Have they started fawning all over Hillary and Bernie yet?

It's also interesting to note that they were critical of Bernie Sanders too, although that seemed to drop off a bit.

They've run quite a few articles like "Sanders might have trouble with minority voters", etc. Opinion spun as "news". Very sly propaganda there.

Let them all blast Donald. If he becomes POTUS, I think they’ll all have to eat crow.
I truly believe he has heard the voice of WE THE PEOPLE and will do what he says he will.

So I’ve seen where this new London mayor, Sadiq Khan, condemns Trump’s tactics but I can find no record where he’s condemned beheadings or other Islamic acts of terrorism.

good thing they dont matter anymore.

odd thing is comments are usually right wing at the bottom.

With social media, they are less and less important each day.

I've seen little fawning over Hillary. Maybe it's still early. Maybe I just missed it. But they have been slamming Trump, and saying nothing bad about Hillary. They treat Bernie as if he were insignificant. See my post #13.

Recently when sending a message in my iPhone I started spielling anticipation and the first suggestion was anti-Trump

Yahoo News is the Jumbo Shrimp of media outlets. It has long been a leftist propaganda rag.

It’s sole contribution to journalism, imho, is keeping Katie Couric’s viewership lower than while at CBS.
