Liberals Using Yahoo News To Forge Impersonation Of Wide Support For Liberal-Slanting News Articles
N/A ^ | N/A | N/A

Posted on 09/30/2004 11:44:34 AM PDT by binladenforkerry

I've a little suggestion for all the members of this group as well as any other lurkers reading these messages. It may not be obvious to you group members, but the Yahoo News portion of this website is being diabolically MANIPULATED by liberal operatives. Seriously, while this may sound a bit far-fetched or severe, liberals are notorious for stooping towards lower and more misbehaving tendencies. Have any of you group members ever visited the Yahoo News site, especially the following three sections: Presidential Elections, Iraq In Transition, and Reader Ratings?

I of course highlight this to you because of a catastrophically worrisome situation developing in those three section of Yahoo News. As some of you who've read the articles on Yahoo News know, there are always ratings at the bottom of each article, which Yahoo invites the signed-in Yahoo user to vote on. It is in this perilous feature of Yahoo's misjudged and unwary design that liberal operatives--probably jobless and with nothing but time on their hands--take advantage of Yahoo's design flaw.

You see, what the stealthy liberals do--and from reading news on Yahoo for a while, I've observed this--is they schemingly work together for the entire day to rig the votes of stories that are in their liberal partialities' favor, a flimsily easy danger to accomplish, what with all the news providers on Yahoo being either Reuters, AP, AFP or the LA Times! These dishonestly voted-up articles then appear on Reader Ratings, which is these liberal schemers' goal. The point is that stories that are about ridiculing or defaming Bush or the Iraq war; praising Kerry; feeble environmental or conservational angles; certain kinds of election machines or methods being disputed; soldiers dying or standing trial for misconduct; and Iran or North Korea purportedly developing nukes are being unrelentingly and fraudulently VOTED UP by these shady liberal manipulators who stupidly assume that they can chicane people who view their illegitimate votes to think that those liberal-originated articles are more credible than they really are.

These jobless, unambitious and otherwise house-bound liberal annoyances also harshly vote up pictures of their detestably asinine liberal causes so that they appear in Reader Ratings for publicity. Examples of pictures they unofficially voted up are Kerry's and Edwards' pictures, lots of pictures of Iraq bomb attacks, pictures of "poor" Palestinian and Iraqi "victims" of violence, etc..

My proposal is an encouragement to all group members who read my message to take a few minutes out of your day to visit the Yahoo News site and go to those three sections highlighted above: Presidential Elections, Iraq in Transition and Reader Ratings. Once there, counteract this liberal menace by voting with a 1 rating on those said stories they've guilefully voted up; if need be, create a few more Yahoo IDs to maximize your voting power.

If members of this group, together with members of other conservative, anti-liberal groups, just make it a point to venture daily to Yahoo News and vote on said stories that the liberals have propagandistically voted up, you can help to greatly reduce the wicked liberals' scheme to fabricate pro-liberal propaganda on the seemingly innocuous Yahoo News site. If this seems horrific to you because it's surprised you, please consider this. Liberals are able to oppressively dictate the false appearances of a news story's "popularity" by this sinister tactic. I appeal to all members of this group to unify to crush those hateful liberals' devious strategy to misdirect other readers about a pro-liberal story's popularity. Please, folks; if you all do your own little share of voting down a liberal story's ratings a few times during the day in those three sections, we can crumble another liberal attempt at propaganda. If this seems silly to you, consider this: the liberal threats are getting away on Yahoo News with YET ANOTHER liberal ploy to subvert the silent majority's beliefs.

Welcome to Free Republic.

Besides what you noted, is how Yahoo will hide the left wing so called news organization that came out with the so called news, like Reuters, Pravda, AFP or ?. Often you have to keep clicking the title to get several layers down to find out that it came from AFP.

They will recycle some of these anti GW hit articles under the Yahoo News, again hiding the source.

doesn't anyone here think it's worth it to "fight back" by rigging the votes of Yahoo articles in a favorable manner to Bush

Rigging is a Rat tactic and Yahoo news is MSM anyway. Their online opinion "polls" about their stories amount to zilch. BTW it's President Bush.

The next time you see a Google hyperlink set up for "George W Bush," the punks at ...

I did this and the first page contains a link to the infamous www.whitehouse.org - which I think is a porn site. I didn't try the link to test it. By the way, the real White House link is www.whitehouse.gov .

How is he a troll? This is completely true. If you go to DU they post every hit peice from Yahoo and they all Rate it up to a 5. I guess we dont do it here 'cause most of the Yahoo articles are hit peices and would probably get pulled here. Maybe we could just post a link and tell people to rate it. Kind of like freeping a poll.

I agree with the sentiment that its not worth it, though. I dont even freep polls anymore.

How do I rate CBS and CNN For their liberal Bias.

How about instead of worrying about polls on a slated website we concentrate on something larger like asking for clear honest reporting in all media. That goes beyond these silly little polls. They only way this can be accomplish is exposing the falsehoods and lies of omission that the slated outlets make, and getting the info out their. that is the true challenge today.

That, in essence, is the power of internet news.
The media likes to give differing info depending on area, and hope that my area won't talk to, say, Texas.
The reason Rather got caught 'out there' is BECAUSE we talk to each other.

What's with the accusation of trolling on my part? Honestly, if you'd just take time out of your "ultra-hectic" schedule to access stories under Presidential Elections, Iraq in Transition, and Reader Ratings, you'll unmistakably see exactly what I mean.
