I think what happened is "Dr Malone" was probably in the More Stories section that links to other current events being reported on.

But it's not an innocent mistake of Google's algorithm because for this page to be listed at the top it means that most or every page actually covering him testifying has been blocked by the algorithm -- that's why this barely relevant even at the time Google scraped it page is top ranked.

What it actually shows is that Dr. Malone as a person/topic has been shadowbanned by Google search.

edit: just to second, I did the google search and it was top ranked with that wrong title as claimed.
