Hi, please let us know how we can improve News further.

MY comments post blank and my thumbs are broken. WHY?

It's hard not to suspect I'm being picked on for my views. I feel as if I'm being personally censored.

        I am experiencing the same problem, but unlike Tom I haven't found any article or section that shows me the comments or allows me to thumbs up/down.

        Actually, I'm allowed to comment and use "Thumbs up/dopwn" on some sports articles but no political news, so I do not personally have a java issue or anything like that. Therefore, it is not a software/hardware issue. Starting to think Yahoo! moderators do not want me voicing my opinion on important political topics.

        I feel exactly the same way as Mike. Am I being personally censored for my views?

        Post a suggestion is not working either. There is no button to post it with.

        I'm experiencing this, but only on one particular machine. I suspect there is a Java issue.

        Me, too, Mike. The thumbs went down last night (march 3), and now I do not see my words put up on the screen.
