For me (on Firefox non-beta) it just opens the in-app browser and shoves ads down my throat. I just checked it, Chrome is disabled and cannot be uninstalled on my phone.
When I have a page opened in the Google News App, I can tap the menu and select to open the web page from there. Then it gets opened in Firefox.
I recommend [URLCheck][1] — it intercepts the default browser and allows both modifying the opened URL (to remove tracking) and forcefully preventing the embedded browser (the bottom-left button).
