    Apparently my mom and I are robots! MSN makes their puzzles to set up an account so difficult to see we can't solve the puzzle. To top it off they are upside down! So even if you could see the microscopic picture and manage to get it in the right circle you might get it wrong! Really!!! Well you lost our business. We are going to get a cloud account instead. Thanks to the brainiacs at MSN!

    MSN is the worst media station in the U.S. It is so unbelievably biased and false news. I can't believe any of these people are journalists. I can't sit by and watch this and can't have my children getting their information from this false media station.

    In one article, they recommend not to buy Chevrolet, another "to buy". The Chevrolet Sonic listed as high maintenance vehicle. I have a 2014 Sonic with 145,000 miles. It has given me minimal maintenance issues. Other articles slam Wal-Mart. I often shop Wal-Mart and Sam's. My experience is quite positive. I do not find MSN's articles to be objective nor fit my own experience.

    I read Microsoft's MSN news every day and for the past 2 years I have noticed they are allowing so many trolls that you cannot read the comments because they pop up every second and are mostly negative about American politicians. I talk with several friends daily and when we try to look up "Why Does MSN News allow so many trolls in comments" either the questions on their threads are blocked or are just non-excitant on the internet. That means they are controlling that feed and do not want people talking about it freely. Plus, when I read CNN news, I have noticed those articles pertaining to real facts are not shown on MSN news.

    This site, along with most others have no tolerance for open discussion. I've attempted to sign in to comment on the Fetterman article and after jumping through many hoops, I was able to comment but pop up was making it nearly impossible on my mobile. So frustrating. Sad situation with our freedoms being absolutely stolen from us. No free think. No freedom to speak opinion. I sure CA doesn't block my comment. My best advice is to scroll right past any articles from MSN.COM. It is ideological propaganda filled trash. If you have to read it, good luck trying to sign in and comment. Disgusting.

Their consist removal, and their desire to shove others remarks in front of you, as you write is amazingly blatant in brainwashing. As you write! Trying to temper and stop you, debilitate your push or point. Incredible **. It is not an open forum. It is not a measured forum. It is an absolute STOP to anything not going with its agenda.

    When I comment on any of their articles, they take it dow. I can highlight exactly what they printed and they still take it down saying it goes against their policies. How can it go against their policies when it was them who wrote it to begin with? They are bias and I have commented have a nice a day and they took it down too. This is harassment at its best, they should be barred from being on the internet for violation of freedom of speech laws.

    I do not like how nosey this and other ISPs. Advertising runs amok. Sometimes I think it would be better to charge a fee and forget the "sponsorships". That said, it is my opinion that there is considerable political weighting of new and articles published on MSN. Clearly Democratic, leftish, progressive (in the worse sense of the word).

    When you pull up MSN on a new tab they post news articles so you can scroll through, open them up, and react or comment on them. They have very Vague Community Guidelines, meaning if they want to delete your comment containing next to no negative context, they can delete it without giving a reason.

    MSN doesn’t report the news. What happened to sharing a story neutrally and allowing the people to form an opinion. Now MSN regurgitates leftist, Liberal twists and connotations on whatever doesn’t fall in line with their “handlers” philosophy. It’s sad that when my children watch the news I need to remind them that there are at least two sides to every story. That MSN, CNN, ETC weaponize the airtime to attack their political enemies. A “news” station that twists, makes conjectures, and tells outright lies to try to sway people to their philosophy. Brian Williams lost his job on NBC nightly news for lying. Now it just seems to be the norm and condoned by the Owners of these organizations. Shame on you.

    I usually review the news each day but found myself really turned off by the disgusting garbage MSN calls news. 4 out of 5 news items are from left wing entities like CNN, ABC, New York Times and NBC. They twist the news into anything that puts Trump in a bad light and makes people like Biden look competent to run this country. I've been around long enough to notice the difference between real news and total garbage. MSN is a waste of time when it comes to reading the news. I now go to my outlook account and then go someplace else.

I am tired of fake news from not only MSN but all of the other news outlets. I believe most people feel the same way. It is allowed because of The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, which was contained within the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (section 1078 (a)) amended the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 and the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987, allowing for materials produced by the State Department and the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) to be available within the United States. Contact your Congressmen to repeal the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act so we can get back to hearing only the true news articles.

    I have used MSN.com for my email for the most of 25 years. When I upgraded to Windows 10 I also went to Office 365, both products of MSN. I discovered in my business emails Outlook was screening my mail and very important emails were marked as Junk causing me to lose a very important client. I have now moved my important emails to Google where I can keep control. MSN tries to make too many decisions for you and leads to a lot of heart ache. I am now looking at Linux as a possible solution. I am truly fed up with MSN and their corrupt politics.

    Much like other reviews here, I find MSN's stories extremely and blatantly biased. I don't actually visit the page but unfortunately whenever I log out of my e-mail my page defaults to MSN! So I occasionally see a vomit inducing headline that makes me cringe. They don't even try to be neutral & I suppose the simple-minded Liberal groupies are just fine with that. There will come a time though when this divisive manipulation will cost dearly. Such opposing camps can never live peaceably for long.

    MSN news is too biased to be seen as credible. Its blatant left-winged perspective with its news and cultural reporting is both negligent and offensive to a solid number of American citizens - including myself. The news service especially has an agenda to influence the way people think and believe about issues on politics. It isn't fair or accurate.

    MSN news is so bias and unfair that it's hard to even put it into words. They even go as far as to suppress the opinions and comments of anyone who doesnt agree directly with them.

    MSN is so far left leaning, they often misrepresent situations and twist facts into unrecognizable versions of the truth (ie. lies).

    I'm not even going to address the obvious problem of MSN leaning so far left that it's about to fall over. Looking at strictly non-political news and stories. (Good luck, there is political undertone in stories about cookies.) 1. Searching a topic just overloads you with non-related, non-relevant advertisements. 2. As I read the stories, write-ups, I find myself completely disagreeing with just about everything. 3. I click on "Autos" and am flooded with motorcycle garbage. I did not click on motorcycles, not do I have the slightest interest in them. Yeah, I am pretty much done with MSN.

    The reviews I just read rated you low... because of your “negative” stories on Trump. If true I think I’m going to like it here! Actually I find the coverage right in the middle, not far left.

    I use MSN to get a quick overview of the news. It gives me a quick overview of what's happening so I feel somewhat "in the loop" with news. I recently took a "tell us what you think of MSN" poll but they didn't allow any way to tell them what I DIDN"T like. So I found this avenue to tell them. I very much dislike the large number of ads (seems like half the content). And the adds are presented as if they are content. So I can't tell news content from ads easily. In fact, I'm wondering if ALL news content is just ads. Is the New Yorker article really "news" or did New Yorker pay MSN to get their news publicized????

    Second, I HATE the features where you have to click through multiple screens to get the content. That's because ALMOST ALWAYS, the pages load slowly and I'm constantly wondering whether it's worth the wait to get the content. I know they get paid more for multiple clicks, but they get paid less when I choose not to click through.

    I don't think the news is very biased and appreciate the multiple news sources. I keep using MSN because it gives me a quick overview of what's the latest and that's needed in our quick news cycle. And they don't provide too many items in the click-through section to get the top news. Also, that section DOES load quickly, so I can get a complete review of the top stories quickly and conveniently even tho I have to put up with half ads.Thank you so much for offering this outlet for giving me real feedback after taking the MSN questionnaire which didn't let me say anything helpful. I hope MSN reads this!
