Hmm. I did a search for “gateway pundit” on startpage.com and it says right away that it is an “american far right fake news website” referencing Wikipedia.

Maybe no different.

They have been doing it for a while, but it became really apparent during the theft of the last presidential election, Jan 6, and subsequent vax rollout.

I've been using Quant but honestly it's not much better. Just assume that what you are looking for will be buried and the top hits will be all propaganda if it's the slightest bit controversial. So far I go back and forth between them because the different algos filter content in different ways, so many times it's a matter of picking up where the other left off. Also it usually takes them a bit longer to get around to censoring stuff vs Google which apparently has a 24hour direct line to the CCP Ministry of Information.

The search engines don't want to be sued for distributing harmful lies.
So you don't believe in free speech. Got it!
