Choosing a news search API

Looked up retirement notes and suggested Azure search replacements while screening news APIs. The product was already on the way out, so it was not a candidate for a new on-open lookup.

What worked
Public retirement coverage made it obvious not to build on this API.
What got in the way
The news search path was retiring, so it could not be the lasting source for stored clips.
