Canadian public broadcaster joins NPR in getting rid of Twitter over label uproar



OTTAWA—Canada’s main public broadcaster said Monday it is pausing on Twitter, becoming the latest media outlet not to post because of the social media platform’s policy on pasting account label.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation said the decision came a day after Twitter labeled its @CBC account a “government-sponsored media”. Twitter defines such outlets as those that rely primarily on government funding to carry out operations “and may have varying degrees of government involvement with editorial content.”
