  1. News content is no longer news

    I'm a 20 year aol customer. I use to get the majority of my news from the aol home page. No longer though. The first 2 or 3 items are as far as I go, because the remaining 75 or so items are a waste of my time, and I would think many others as well. Filled with topics generally found in People magazine. Not news. Maybe separate hard news into a dedicated category. I'd be glad to try again.

  2. sick

    AOL is a sick and demented, hate America organization. Did anyone who works there graduate high school or learn anything about world history or American history. NO....NO.......and NO. Slugs and worms are smarter than those who work for and contribute to AOL!

  3. NOT POSTING MY REASONABLE POSTS. YOU ONLY POSTS RADICALIZING HATE SPEECH OBVIOUSLY FROM RUSSIANS & TROLLS WITHOUT OPPORTUNITY TO RESPOND.

    I have been stopped from posting on your site for no apparent reason. I do not post hate speech. I had been responding to your Russian trolls who do post hate speech. When ever they are on you have a 600% inversion of "likes" to "dislikes" based on the "bombs" they have planted on your site. They all have the same keyword triggers or phrases they then overwhelm the comment sections with out and out hate speech, violence themes and every conceivable lie they can do over and over. They sign is as a "Guest" then post under 10 names…

  4. AOL's reporting

    I noticed a distinct change in AOL's reporting today, it was not all about slamming Trump, but actually provided the news of the day without bias. As a subscriber for nearly 25 years, I can only say "thank you". I hope this continues as I would like to use AOL for my only non-biased news provider....News agencies should let the reader draw their own conclusions with fair and balanced reporting.....

  5. Writing Style

    Reading most links scrolling on AOL can be very frustrating. The initial headline only hints at the subject, but it's necessary to scroll and scroll and scroll before eventually getting to it. They should be written with the facts of the headline first - if the reader wishes more detail they can read on.

  6. Barack Obama

    Are you serious? AOL is actually stupid enough to run an article where Obama is lecturing the present and any future president. This man was a disaster as a president, a liar, a schemer and a do nothing but ***** America president. AOL may want to kiss his *** but the non-brain washed Americans wish they never heard of this love life hypocrite.

  10. 2 ideas or more

    1] discontinue the annoying "breaking news" pop-up
    2] find a way to avoid "network error" from preempting videos.(I can watch YouTube and other videos from various sites, for hours with no difficulty--and cannot understand why AOL videos of 40 seconds don't work.
    3] do not put up teasers in your 80 or so stories that, when clicked on, esult in "nothing found" or "ooops there seems to e a problem" or a reminder to check spelling in our search!

  11. ***********

    There is nothing new about stupid. It has been around since the beginning of time. However, AOL has brought it to a new level because you are not only stupid, you try to pretend you are smart by using lies. YOU ****** and you hate America. We get it....

  14. Pelosi

    Pelosi is a ***** who has no self discipline nor morals. She is dumb as a rock and has only one interest and this is herself. She does not care one ounce for America or the people who live within its borders. She is simply a horrible money and power grabbing *****.

  17. Teach your headline writers correct English

    Lady Gaga did not "break her engagement from" whatshisname. She was engaged TO him and broke up WITH him. The purpose of prepositions is to indicate change, including direction and location. People travel TO a place, arrive AT a place, and leave the place (direct object, no preposition--unless the context is specifying a point of departure on a trip, for ex. "Our flight left from Chicago and landed in Dallas."). They are excited by (cause) or about (future event)--not "excited for" unless empathizing with another person ("You're engaged?! I'm so excited/happy for you!")
