Well, I asked someone who knows better and he settled this matter.
Apparently, Google News uses the settings of the browser, which in
this case (Tor Browser) is set en-US. So it won't be random.

It is not true that if I type news.google.com, I would always
everywhere be getting the US news in English. For example, if I use a
VPN and the server is locate in Canada, then Google will redirect me
to news.google.ca.

So the first question is settled, but the second remains: about the
freezing, crashing, the corrupted context menu: Only in Tor Browser on
Whonix. I use Unstrusted VM whole day today and didn't fact that
problem.
