I did a short stint as a Google Rater a decade ago. I was hired as an independent subcontractor by one of the two companies who had the rating contracts for Google at the time. A rater has access (at least then) to the results of the new algorithms Google is testing, and the job was to determine whether the results for search terms were “accurate.”
I only had access to the results of the new algorithms and instructions written by Google, with Google branding on every page, but I had to sign a nondisclosure agreement before I even started. So all I can say is this: I learned a decade ago that Google only wants you to see what it wants you to see.
I quit after a short time, not only because I was disgusted with Google, but because the company that hired me broke every rule in the IRS book re subcontractors.
Yes, this began a couple months ago and continues. They post new pages about old incidents, trying to bait people into tweeting it, so it can be debunked and person loses credibility. You have to read carefully sometimes. And also Google changed how you manipulate search results. It must be, first choose timeframe (like 24hrs), then choose News, then choose sorting by most recent. Even doing it this way, the results do not seem

You can't see the forest for the trees. Or you can't see the forest at all.✝️🇺🇸
