Yahoo comments not visible today

Today, on Yahoo news, the button to go to comments still exists, but I click on it and it goes to a blank space. User comments are not populated. It still works fine on Edge.

Any clue if this is a problem with a Firefox update or coming from Yahoo?

Hi All, this could be a Tracking Protection block if Yahoo hosts its comments with a third party that does the same for multiple sites (the third party can engage in cross-site tracking). As a test, turn off Tracking Protection on Yahoo! News. Obviously not ideal because you'll probably see even more ads, but please test and see whether that allows comments to load. To do that, click the shield icon at the left end of the address bar (next to the lock) and click the slider switch to turn off tracking protection. Any difference?

Interesting replies;however, I have attempted to correct the problem using most of the solutions provided without success. The question remains if this is surreptitious censorship by a third party moderator which has inherent political bias.

Tried the solution, but could not get it to work. Still can't see the comments, also the new update keeps changing from yahoo to google when I go to a new tab. checked the settings shows yahoo as may preferred search, so I don't know why it goes to google or how to correct it.

In your settings, change your browser security to "Standard" instead of STRICT, at least while using yahoo. You can always change it back if you so desire.

I  did that and it doesn't work.
