Historical News Access Using Refinitiv.Data API

Hi. I am using the refinitiv.data API via python to access news headline information from Workspace. When I pass more recent dates as arguments, I get news headlines returned as expected. However when I pass older dates as arguments I get nothing returned. If there a limit on how far back one can access relevant news? Thanks in advance.
