I use 85.0.2-64bit on a Windows 10 PC.

For the last month or so, when I click on any of the headline links from the news.google homepage, I'm shown only a blank page. No error message. The url looks normal.

-The links all work when I use Edge.

-I do have Add-ons, but I turned them all off, restarted Firefox, and the links still fail. Any remedies? Suggestions? Some setting I don't know about?

A screenshot showing the blank page would be nice. Most of those links go to other site which is why a screenshot showing your issue would help. I am not having any issues with the links. see screenshot

I notice that this nbcnews site video auto plays, but it's muted. Interesting...

Okay, I'd rather not give a look at my toolbars. Personal policy. (Too lazy to black them out.) I can give you a shot just of the webpage, but that'd be comical because it's totally blank.

However, I'll give you the screen shot of the page before I click the first headline, and the url of the blank page it then sends me to.

The shot below is before, this Url is after: https://news.google.com/articles/CAIiELXht6wH_KCCGGf87D7_7aQqGQgEKhAIACoHCAow4Zn5CjCu8uACMNSiwQU?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen

PS. Oh, and just in case, here's the url of the starting page:
