Twitter and Facebook Suspend All Accounts for Publisher of Censored News


Twitter and Facebook Suspend All Accounts for Publisher of Censored News

Twitter and Facebook suspended all accounts for Brenda Norrell, publisher of Censored News.

Here's some of the most recent coverage that someone doesn't want you to see -- Lakota youths support Palestine; Series from the United Nations testimony; Helium Balloons over South Dakota; Raytheon Dine' Facility on the Navajo Nation continues to produce missile parts for Raytheon, a top war profiteer, during the ongoing genocide in Palestine; and Censored News investigation into non-profits in Indian country, revealing a quarter billion dollars stashed at the non-profits -- in bank accounts, real estate and investments -- and not being distributed to the Native Americans it was donated for.

There was no reason given by either Twitter or Facebook for the suspensions. An appeal was filed with Twitter, but there has been no response. This is the second time Facebook has shut down our accounts. It refuses to reinstate them.
