It was closed because it's "not a tier one product issue", which seems
to be the case.  Both news:// and nntp:// links clicked in Firefox open
the handlers for those protocols;  I just checked by clicking the links
in your bug report.

Maybe it needs to be re-opened and reclassified -- ISTM it's not a
"Core, Networking" issue.
