On the homescreen, pinch out or long press on an open space. Then Swipe to the far left to select between samsung news or Google discover. Not many options... you may find better luck with a 3rd party launcher

Edit: Google discover may not be available if you're on android 12

We are long past OneUI3.  It's a Samsung phone, naturally they will favor their own news app.  I'm pretty sure their news app is much like Readers Digest - they source news from various feeds and don't have their own news service.  You are free to download a different news app that meets your sensibilities, but you won't be able to use it on the news screen.  You can, however, disable the swipe right for the news.  In the Samsung News app, you can go to settings and choose your news sources and topics you want to see in your feed.

It makes sense. It is not even available anymore in OneUI6.1. Only Google Discover is available.
Things change. These days people want to choose their own biased or unbiased news sources, so it makes no sense to keep the screen.

You open the News app, then tap the 3 dot menu to go to the app settings, scroll down to manage news sources and choose your sources.

Samsung News is all you will get on that screen.  Their phone, their app.  The ONLY thing you can do is select which news sources you see They have a variety of all different bents that you can select from.  If you want anything else, you will have to download another news app that coincides with your point of view.  I don't understand your problem with it.  You get to choose your news source.  As I said the News app is only a shell, a curator of news sources that YOU select.  If you select no sources, they will use their "editorial discretion" to show you articles they think you might be interested in based on a combination of your searches and browsing history.
