MRC Exposes How Yahoo 100 Uses Biased AI and Leftist Sources to Suppress Conservative Views

An MRC study found that the new Yahoo 100 trending feed featured only 3% right leaning stories over a three month period.

The feed relies heavily on Anthropic's Claude AI model and Microsoft's Bing search tool, both of which MRC research previously exposed for left wing bias and censorship.

MRC data revealed that roughly 70% of the stories promoted on Yahoo 100 originated from left leaning media outlets.

Yahoo mixes automated algorithms with human editors who actively curate and shape the final trending news list presented to readers.

 

MRC Catches Television Networks Rushing to Protect Left-Wing Democrat Abdul El-Sayed

ABC, CBS, and NBC network broadcasts framed legitimate Republican criticisms of Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed as unfairly aggressive attacks.

CBS Mornings relied on standard media tropes by complaining that Republicans quickly seized on El-Sayed's controversial record and opposition to military aid for Israel.

ABC's Good Morning America parroted campaign talking points while claiming President Trump wasted time attacking El-Sayed rather than focusing on the economy.

NBC's Today highlighted El-Sayed as an exciting figure for the left while brushing off his extreme foreign policy positions.

 

MRC Documents How CBS and NBC Defend Birth Tourism to Attack Trump Executive Orders

CBS Evening News falsely asserted that claims of birth tourism were made without evidence despite extensive documentation of organized maternity schemes.

NBC Nightly News relied on activist quotes from groups like the ACLU to attack executive orders curbing foreign exploitation of birthright citizenship.

Neither network addressed the documented multi-million dollar industries profiting from foreign nationals traveling to the United States solely to give birth.

ABC avoided covering the executive orders entirely during its broadcast, opting instead to feature secondary lifestyle stories.
