Font is messed up on multiple pages after Chrome update

Reported by tsdenhar...@gmail.com, Aug 5 2016 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.116 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
www.yahoo.com

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to yahoo.com
2. 
3. 

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
Certain fonts are very difficult to read, including the font in "inbox"...google's own website.

Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes 

Chrome version: 52.0.2743.116  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0

All fonts appeared fine before the update (yesterday).  I do recall making some tweaks to a chrome setting about a year ago; possibly the direct-write setting that is now missing from Chrome 52.

I've tried resetting Chrome, tried incognito, and all other suggestions i've seen.  Please help.

Do you have cleartype and font smoothing enabled? Is it just certain fonts or all fonts?
