I have had Yahoo as my home page for as long as I can remember (mostly for the news headlines).....but it seems like the site has been putting up lots of right-wing crap as of late, and almost every single comment on every article (even non-political ones) blames Obama for every ill in the world.
Has anyone else noticed this?

| 4. The comments would be the audience more than the site itself |
|
Of course, there's a chicken-egg thing going on there.
On the other hand, news article comments tend to lean fairly badly conservative. (Or apolitically idiotic.)

| 6. I noticed this for about the last week especially. It really steams me, too. |
|
There was at least one really slanted headline every time I had to look....sometimes two. It is obvious.
