If the CNN story didn't pop up in your searching, then it may be a result of your overall search patterns causing the algorithms to not show it for you. It's how these search engines help reinforce our opinions and create confirmation bias.
But like I said, I went to the CNN website but couldn't find it, and it definitely wasn't on their front page if it was posted because I looked all over the front page and then looked at other elements on the site and even used their own search feature typing in key words like "Democratic", "Senator" and "assassination". All I got was "Your search did not match". However now when I search those words it shows up pretty plainly.
