In a constant stream of biased stories against the current administration, Yahoo! News ran a feature from GMA yesterday trumpeting all the success the Chicago is having reducing gun violence this year.
It’s not the story itself that’s so entertaining, its the comments it drew. Here are a few example of the “top reactions.”

So Chiraq will hav only 700 hundred murders as compared to 757 the year before? Gee, that’s great news. That’s about 650 more than Americans killed in actin this year
grafitti artists should be shot on sight.
Yahoo used to be close to the middle in news reporting, but since Trump’s election has gone way left. Commenters have tended to be somewhat toward the right.
Left Coast Dan, my wife the lofotainment Trump supporter would show me the comment sections from all of her TMZ-type celeb gossip sites throughout the election last year. They were almost without fail slanted as far to the right as the site and its stories were slanted to the left. And nowadays, there don’t seem to be nearly as many leftie comment trolls as there were during the Obama regime. He must have been paying them back then. Or I guess the Russians were paying them as part of the Uranium One deal.
Seems like a big reduction in Leftist trolls in comments on sites I visit.
After the election and then the final efforts to disrupt the January Inauguration, the troll payrolls were not renewed.
Conservatives need to create alternative to Facebook, Twitter and Google.
Definitely fewer lefty trolls. Of course if you venture onto Slate or HuffPo there are still plenty, but they don’t go onto middle or right sites nearly as much.
“… fewer lefty trolls.”
I remember that Hines was banned (the single banning, as I recall – quite a claim to fame) but what has happened to the other drooling nose-pickers who used to comment here? Not that I miss em, of course … just wondering. Some were mildly amusing.
izlamo delenda est …
if you want trolls, go to dc caller.
The leftist idiots at Media Matter treat that comment section as their own personal safe space. The respond to the slightest push back with the comment equivalent of putting their fingers in their ears and repeating nonsense to themselves.
I got kick off of Yahoo for saying
“No matter how close Aaron Rodgers shaves…He’ll always have a
BEARD”
MSN news and home page is the same.
I read the article, and the PD attributes the decline to proactive policing, predictive technology and focusing on gangs. Notice two things: (1) no mention of gun control and (2) these are actions blocked by the Obama administration.
OF COURSE GUN VIOLENCE IS DOWN!
1/2 the murderers killed the other 1/2.
The least he could have done was paint a knot correctly.
Look at it and follow it through. Much like the left, it makes no sense.
There is no real news on yahoo. They are just leftist trash.
