What is a reliable way of determining whether that statement is true?

For example, do you have URLs of news articles that are not found by major search engines (or are ranked questionably low for the given query)?




"right-wing activist killed"

produces plenty of responses including the Portland protest. Cnn is not on the first page though.

"left-wing kills police officer"

oddly enough produces mostly right-wing violence. Putting "left-wing" in quotes helps a lot though.

It is for me. In an incognito tab as well.

Can you give an example of an article that you would have expected instead for that query? I.e. one that you feel has been left out, or ranked too low?
