Facebook Censors Prominent Political Critics

[Constitutional Paulicy]

Political Witch Hunt by Popular Social Media Sites
Posted on December 27, 2012 by WashingtonsBlog

We’ve previously documented that the largest social media websites censor government criticism.

For example, Facebook pays low-wage foreign workers to delete certain content based upon a censorship list. For instance, Facebook deletes accounts created by any Palestinian resistance groups.

Today, Facebook deactivated the Facebook accounts of some of the leading American political critics.

For example, former diplomat and U.C. Berkeley Professor Emeritus Peter Dale Scott told us that his Facebook account was suddenly deactivated today without any justification.

So did Richard Gage, founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

And Michael Rivero, owner of the popular website What Really Happened.

Infowars – one of the world’s most popular alternative media sites – confirms that accounts for the following political commentators have been shut down:

Kurt Nimmo, writer for Infowars.com and formerly Counterpunch

Aaron Dykes of Infowars

Jason from Infowars

Infowar Artist


Others include....

Amber Lyon, 3-time Emmy Award winning CNN reporter

Robert M. Bowman, former director of the “Star Wars” defense program under President Ronald Reagan

William Rodriguez, 9/11 hero

Anthony J. Hilder, popular radio host

William Lewis

Weare Change, popular citizen journalism group

Wacboston

Michael Murphy

Mike Skuthan

Packy Savvenas

Sean Wright and Katherine Albrect

The following is a list of Facebook accounts operated by individuals in the alternative media that have been shut down by Facebook staff over the past 24 hours. Infowars writer Aaron Dykes and political dissident Brandon J. Raub have also had their accounts deleted. Raub was snatched by police and forcibly imprisoned in a psychiatric ward earlier this year for posting political content on Facebook. Infowars editor Kurt Nimmo also had his account suspended this morning.

Facebook Yields to Pressure: Reactivates Political Critics’ Accounts

Prominent political critics confirmed to us that their accounts had been suspended or inactivated yesterday in a coordinated purge.

But after we – and others – slammed the censorship, the activists’ accounts have been reinstated.
