Steps to reproduce

MSN News redirect enabled - opening the following from Microsoft News Feed: https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/hurricane-beryl-leaves-millions-without-power-and-claims-second-victim/

2024/07/09 11:26:17 - Caught Valid URI Call: Method: Undefined source: Windows.Widgets timestamp: 1720488326388 url: https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/hurricane-beryl-leaves-millions-without-power-and-claims-second-victim/

✔️ Expected Behavior

Looks like typical behaviour in this case would be to redirect to msn.com (This works when msn news redirect is disabled). However it would be good if the programs was able to use the original publisher name/domain.

❌ Actual Behavior

result: australia -site:msn.com -site:bing.com redirected to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia
