What happened to the discuss option on Yahoo?

Has Yahoo discontinued the news "Discuss" option to censor public opinion?

  • When they cut off the "Discuss" option on news stories, they did it with the lame excuse that somehow a "limited number of people" were able to "dominate" the discussion boards. I never did believe or understand this nonsense. Anybody can post to those boards any time they want, and I never felt that one or two people could "take over" a particular board. Personally, I think they didn't like the hatred, vitriol, racism, and on the positive side, criticism and open bashing of political policies and groups. I believe Yahoo!, or rather someone very high up in it, has a personal axe to grind against letting "Mr and Mrs Front Porch" spout off and see that they are not alone in their views. It is no accident that among the myriad categories and Yahoo! products you are allowed to post a question in here about, "Yahoo News" is one subcategory that is conspicuously absent.
