Is it just me or are other people bothered by seeing pictures/videos of men and women having inappropriate, lets call it, ‘encounters’ on Yeshiva World News?
I understand many of them are husband and wife but many are not.
i know that Yeshiva World News need to report on what’s going on in the world but perhaps it could be done in a more appropriate way…
January 24, 2021 8:05 pm at 8:05 pm #1942006MenoParticipantWhat are you talking about?
January 24, 2021 8:45 pm at 8:45 pm #1942008☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIt’s not just you, it’s anyone whose browser is used for encounters. Google knows your browsing tendencies and shows ads of similar content.
I get lots of ads for coffee.
January 24, 2021 9:20 pm at 9:20 pm #1942014GoldilocksParticipantCute.
I’ve been thinking of buying a pet lately, and YWN is bombarding me with ads for pet cages!January 24, 2021 9:33 pm at 9:33 pm #1942026🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantWho says he means those personal ads, maybe he means some of the paid ads.
January 24, 2021 10:20 pm at 10:20 pm #1942049☕️coffee addictParticipantSyag is probably correct and the op is referring to the “Yosef the musical”
January 25, 2021 1:44 am at 1:44 am #1942016commonsaychelParticipant@trybepolite, its the cookies you dropped when you went to the inappropriate sights, now go back to yeshiva
January 25, 2021 7:55 am at 7:55 am #1942140trybepoliteParticipantsorry if i didnt make myself clear. i didnt mean the ads, i meant when i click on an article on Yeshiva World News, as well as the news there are videos of not so appropriate things.
i do not go on such sights that it would show me ads for those things.
January 25, 2021 7:56 am at 7:56 am #1942141trybepoliteParticipantFor example i was really unimpressed to see on the videos they had of the inauguration, there were many such things. i know they were many hour long videos but if you aren’t sure then don’t put them on!!
isn’t that kind of defeating the purpose of this sight to provide kosher news to the people who dont want to go on the mainstream sights??
January 25, 2021 7:57 am at 7:57 am #1942162ParticipantParticipantI’m the only one who thinks op means news articles? not sure which articles he’s referring to. I don’t have any Google ads on ywn. everyone else does?
January 25, 2021 8:00 am at 8:00 am #1942180🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantI agree with the op in regard to dress and language in many of the posted clips.
January 25, 2021 9:37 am at 9:37 am #1942169YtParticipant“pictures/videos of men and women having inappropriate, lets call it, ‘encounters’”
I’m not seeing any, but I have seen noshim, but I’m not bothered so much
January 25, 2021 10:44 am at 10:44 am #1942242Yserbius123ParticipantIf you are worried about seeing stuff on the Internet that goes against what a ben or bas Yisrael should see on the Internet, then you should not be in the Internet even with a filtered connection.
January 25, 2021 11:01 am at 11:01 am #1942248☕️coffee addictParticipantYserbius,
Why? Please explain
I think if the site’s name is Yeshiva world it would have news for someone who is yeshivish
I mean if a person doesn’t care about seeing inappropriate material he can go to the numerous goyishe (or not frum) news sources
Then there is no מעלה of yeshiva world news
January 25, 2021 11:01 am at 11:01 am #1942251trybepoliteParticipantor how about, i am accepting that i have a taava for looking at the news so, instead of going somewhere where a Frum Jew shouldn’t be, i was going to what i thought was a sight that caters to people who want to see the news but don’t want to see all the pritzus and grobkeit that come with it.
January 25, 2021 2:48 pm at 2:48 pm #1942375YtParticipantOk,I’m sure it was a one off I’m sure it was a mistake on behalf of YWN editors who were not expecting Biden to do that in front of millions.
But generally I haven’t seen a lot of pritzus on YWN b4
January 25, 2021 6:15 pm at 6:15 pm #1942393GadolhadorahParticipantAfter reading 15 posts, I’m still not sure what the OP is talking about. Was there a specific video attached to a specific news story you found offensive. If so, could you explain. I think YWN editors do a great job in screening the material that is posted here and thread the needle with great care. I’m often offended by some of the stock photos that are attached to headlines to convey a negative visual but that is their option to convey a visual editorial slant. If you don’t agree, you are always free to start up your own platform with your own posting standards.
P.S. If you are so offended by “pritzus and grobkeit”, where have you been for the past 4 years when we had to endure the nightly P&G visuals emanating from the WH and MAGA rallies??
January 25, 2021 6:54 pm at 6:54 pm #1942417YtParticipantWATCH: President Biden Sworn In, Calls For Unity In Inaugural Address – The Yeshiva World
(Think that’s a link)
Watch the clip of the swearing in (the bit right after he gets sworn in)
January 25, 2021 10:35 pm at 10:35 pm #1942464Yserbius123Participant@mbachur (AKA Coffee Addict) and @trybepolite You’re still relying on YWN standards as to what they consider appropriate, and those standards may not be the same as yours. So my advice would be not to rely on the frumkeit standards of anonymous people on the Internet. If you want your eyes to stay 100% pure and kodesh, stick with seforim. Besides, the video in question was hardly problematic. If that’s what you take issue with, you definitely need to stop leaving the Beis Medrash.
YWN also slips up on occasion and prints stuff that go against their standards too. There was an article some time ago that quoted Louis Farrakhan (may Hashem bring him to teshuva soon) and used language that is certainly not something you want your children reading.
January 26, 2021 4:59 am at 4:59 am #1942535trybepoliteParticipantwhat you are saying is 100% true. but its a shame that there is nowhere that tells whats going on in the world in a way that fits up to my and im sure many other people’s standards.
im most probably still going to go on yeshiva world news to see whats going on but i guess i wont watch any videos that i have doubt about. (maybe thats a good thing:))

“where have you been for the past 4 years when we had to endure the nightly P&G visuals emanating from the WH and MAGA rallies??”im not sure if it ever occurred to you but the whole world isnt America.
