Just to write down exactly what is happening:
$ emacs -Q
M-x gnus
minibuffer says: 

  nntp (news) open error: ‘>>> (error news/nntp Name or service not known)’.  
  Continue? (y or n)

I press y and the *Group* buffer (that's the right name, right?) appears, with 
following long error message in the minibuffer:

Warning: Opening nntp server on news...failed: >>> (error news/nntp Name or 
service not known); Server nntp+news previously determined to be down; not 
retrying; Opening nntp server on news...failed: >>> (error news/nntp Name or 
service not known); Server nntp+news previously determined to be down; not 
retrying

I hit ^ and move the pointer to {nttp:news} (denied) and press O
the cursor goes to the next line (minibuffer empty).
