Yahoo! staff members used to remove my questions because I was critical of liberal ideologies and opinions. They cancelled my account without notice after 7 years of being a daily-login user! Then, I threatened to file suit against Yahoo! for freedom of speech violations, whereupon was I reinstated. The fiasco they put me through made me think they are liberal-friendly. But they haven't deleted my questions for a long time, I think because they are afraid. But it begs the questions: How many other users have had their questions deleted like I have? Have you noticed a liberal bias in the Answers "political" category? Well, I have. I was just wondering if others have noticed the same. Since I believe most of you have, I implore you to use Yahoo! Answers get the heart of the issues at hand, to question liberal media wherever they may be, and to ask more challenging questions of liberals and their cohorts on and off of this question forum. Get to the truth about the America-weakening ideology that the liberal ilk promotes.

By the way, I'm sorry if I take protecting America more seriously than you, Sun Spot. That a common tune from liberals these days; chill out, be mellow. Maybe thats why we haven't yet won the war on terror--because liberals are in the way, willingly.

Over I think last time I heard 87% of all content was controlled by liberal search engines. Google and Yahoo has been sued by a few Conservative pundits because when you searched for them by name, you would get top answers that told you how much they stinked. Sometimes the Conservatives webpage wouldn't even show on the first page. When they asked they said well look at the numbers of hits. There were a few that were found to be higher than the actual pundits sites and they also noticed there was a over 1000% increase in hits to a certain website that was at the top of the list. they found out later that is when google changed their policy on conservative pundits is when the spike hit.

you say this because you're conservative... from the other side it seems Yahoo Answers has a conservative bias, I've had many questions deleted that challenged conservative ideology, but they never went so far as to close my account. I really think it depends on who you piss off and how many people flag you. I personally only think flags should be used if the person is abusive, like swearing and namecalling, but a lot of people flag eachother because they don't agree with them... It's very childish.

Were you reported because of what you said, or how you said it? People get reported for breaching community standards (insulting others, vulgarity) not for political ideologies.

Can you give us an example of the posts that got you canceled?

I see plenty of right wing "questions" on YA -- so I say no. I see many right wing "questions" on here -- but very few are intelligent or challenging.

Yes. Maybe we should enact the "fairness doctrine" with yahoo.

I think you take this forum way to seriously.
