Many of the headlining news stories have accompanying videos. When I click on the video, I get a black screen with an never ending rotating blue circle in the middle of the field, as if it is looking for the video, but it never starts up. I can open other website videos, for the most part. But, for some reason, the Yahoo videos cannot be viewed.
