You Tube and Yahoo are trying to shove RW propaganda down my throat....
I never click on anything from Fox or the Washington Examiner, or watch any videos from Ben Shapiro, but that doesn't stop Yahoo from populating half of my newsfeed with RW garbage, and YouTube populating its recommended videos with crap from Fox and Ben Shapiro (although in the case of YouTube it's a bit more balanced with videos from MSNBC and the Damage Report).
I thought these algorithms were supposed to look at what we watch and click on and decide what we might like?
