Pegrine already solved the problem for the OP.

If Kinkytoes hadn't left, she would know that I am pretty trusted around here.

Or, you could simply ask "How can I personalize my home page?" See? Instead you choose to mention those extremist sites including the despicable Brightbart = troll
Way to answer his question, Comrade Troll. Stalin and Lenin would be so proud of you.......

I don't want a hard core news only site as a home page. I can click on a Fox, Breitbart, Drudge or Town Hall bookmark if I want to. I was hoping for a varied start page. I did like how Yahoo would display sports, entertainment, tech, ect.

Any home pages out there one would recommend?

BTW - I do NOT want to engage in a political exchange here ...so NO TROLLS please.
What do you mean by home page, the page that opens when you click on a new tab?

I just use Google search, it has not news to upset you, just the google search bar and a few of the most common pages you use as links.

This is a very old thread. That aside, there are a couple of search engines that unlike Google and others, don't track you. Also, these search engines are sort of neutral or more in the middle regarding the your search question. "Duckduckgo" is one example. It is possible that with Peregrine help above the OP already solved the problem, so this thread not longer serves a purpose.

I concur, of course.
The OP was looking for something that doesn't lean left,
and the troll leans left. Not what the OP needed

Google tracks you, and feeds you adds based on that,
and algorithms based on their Leftist agenda.
I use Startpage, which strips out the tracking, but still feeds me answer based
on an algorithm based on a leftist agenda.
I have gotten in the habit of hitting pagedown as the results of my
search come up, simply because I know the first 3 to 5 answers
will be ads and leftist tripe.

Sometimes I use duckduckgo, which is basically Yahoo,
with the tracking stripped out.

The thread still serves the purpose of informing people who didn't see it a while back ...

I want a home page that doesn't have a constant Liberal slant of every day news. I want a home page that is not constantly denigrating all conservative opinions and views. I want a home page that does not have a vendetta against Donald J Trump and his whole family. I want a home page that is open to criticism of the handling of COVID and Anthony Fauci without becoming an Enemy of the State. I want a home page where I can ask for honest information regarding a group, like the Proud Boys, and not be denied. I want a home page where the unvaccinated are not Evil and Satanic. I want a home page where if I question the 2020 election, I'm not thrown in with the basket of deplorables spreading the "Big Lie". I'm beginning to doubt whether one exists.

It's interesting to see how many folks who posted in this thread are no longer active, like the coalman and kinkytoes, but also several more. Wonder why?
