Notoriously false sources returned at top of Firefox/search engine results

Why don't you have a setting that lets a person "ignore" search resultes from known bad sources? I realize its my choice for search engine, but don't feel that option is available or even offered with any of their interfaces. The top choices always seem to return absolute false or mis-information. That is one reason I keep switching browsers and search engines. I'm ready to again delete Firefox for not meeting my needs, but instead wasting my time.

Good bye again.

Firefox is a web browser and not a search engine.

Search engines like Google search has ways to make search more specific or exclude terms or sites or sites to search etc.
