How do I stop receiving notifications for random websites / "news" on Firefox Android without disabling notifications altogether?

I'm so annoyed by these notifications for utterly random websites / "news" that started after a recent update (see attached screenshot). I don't want these, bit also don't want to turn off notifications altogether. Thank you!

Hi Tyler

I might be able to help with that;

  1. Open Firefox for Android menu.
  2. Tap Settings
  3. Tap Site permissions.
  4. Select Exceptions
  5. Find the site in the list that is notifying you, and change the option to block it.

I hope that this helps.
