The short version
Take one link at a time. The site that runs a page decides what’s on it, and Google decides what shows in search, so ask the site first and then ask Google to catch up. Start by saving the link and a dated screenshot.

Work from the search page outward
Record the exact search phrase, ranking position, title, snippet and source. Then inspect the page itself. Search-page damage can come from the title or snippet even when the underlying article is more balanced.
Look for policy or accuracy issues
Privacy, impersonation, outdated information, fake reviews, harassment, copyright, defamation concerns or incorrect facts may each have different reporting or correction options.
Avoid reputation spam
Thin fake profiles, copied articles and aggressive mass posting can look low-quality and may not solve the problem. The better route is truthful, useful information you publish yourself.
Keep a record as things change
Note the date you sent each request, what came back, and how the search result looks afterwards. Pages and snippets can take weeks to change in Google after the website updates.
