It is simply not true that we have censored anything. I realize I previously explained how our news rankings work very poorly on Twitter, but I subsequently put out a clarification tweet[1] and then we made this help page with a much clearer (and detailed) explanation of how our news rankings work: https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/ne.... This is not "back-peddling"; it is the ground truth of what is actually going on with our news results.
