Bias

Why does Yahoo News only post negative news about Hillary while only posting positive news about Obama? Hyacinth (talk) 01:23, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I removed this link and the "Bias" subhead from the external links section. momoricks (make my day) 04:14, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

The article should have a section on Yahoo's right wing bias. This can be supported by the list of sources that yahoo uk relies on for its news - SKY, Fox, Daily Mail, Metro (sister paper to the Daily Mail), Telegraph, Daily Express, the Spectator... and several sources of dubious origin. This ignores free left wing sources such as the Guardian and Daily Mirror and centralist sources such as the Independent and Channel 4 News... although on rare occasions if it supports Yahoo's editorial agenda, it will use the BBC. By and large, the majority of news stories tend to focus on the topics of immigration and race in a negative context, the EU in a negative context, ISIS and terrorism in the context of Islam and Muslims, Corbyn bashing, anti-SNP, and support of the Conservative party and UKIP. This is hardly surprising considering the sources that are predominantly drawn upon. As such the comment sections on Yahoo News UK frequently have racist, xenophobic, and far right viewpoints often in blatant breach of Yahoo's comment rules. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.227.44.41 (talk) 02:23, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
