Special Report: 83% Left vs. 15% Right—Yahoo News Was Most Bipolar Big Four News App in March

In March 2026, Yahoo News promoted 479 AllSides-rated stories in its top 20 daily stories, with 83% from left-leaning outlets and only 15% from right-leaning ones (almost entirely Fox News).

Yahoo heavily featured radical left sources like Salon (56 stories) and The New Republic (11 stories), while virtually ignoring the top 50 right-leaning outlets except for minimal Fox coverage and just 2% center-rated stories.

Compared to other major news apps, Yahoo offered the least balanced feed, with far fewer center stories than MSN (41%), Apple News (26%), or Google News (27%), raising concerns about shaping public opinion with a one-sided view.

 

CENSORED! Four New Heinous Illegal Immigrant Crimes Buried By ABC/CBS/NBC

ABC, CBS, and NBC have buried four new horrific crimes by illegal immigrants, with three receiving zero seconds of evening or morning show coverage despite their severity.

One case earned only 142 total seconds (all on CBS), while the networks gave the other three complete silence, continuing their pattern of shielding the public from the human cost of the border crisis.

This blackout by the Big Three networks prevents Americans from seeing the full scope of illegal immigrant crime, prioritizing narrative protection over basic news reporting.

 

Networks Ignore Bombshell Documents Showing Bias, Cover-Up on First Trump Impeachment

Declassified 2019 documents reveal the Trump impeachment whistleblower Eric Ciaramella had clear potential bias due to his close work with Joe Biden on Ukraine, yet the intelligence community inspector general hid these conflicts and treated hearsay-based allegations as credible.

The documents show Ciaramella lacked firsthand knowledge of the Trump-Zelenskyy call, misled investigators, and coordinated with Adam Schiff’s team, while the IG altered standards to advance the complaint.

Major networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) completely ignored the story on their flagship newscasts despite DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s criminal referrals, continuing a pattern of 93% negative Trump coverage during the original impeachment.

 

Jimmy Kimmel Hypes 'Operation Dildo Blitz' As a Way To Protest ICE

Jimmy Kimmel enthusiastically promoted “Operation Dildo Blitz,” praising protesters in Minneapolis, Los Angeles, and Portland for throwing rubber sex toys at ICE agents and vehicles as a “harmless” and “nice” way to express opposition.

Kimmel joked about the tactic, saying “sometimes you have to fight dildos with dildos” and speculating on the source of the dildos, framing it as a lighthearted protest method gaining traction.

Taunting law enforcement with sex toys undermines the protesters’ seriousness.
