Facebook banned authentic Beijing June 4th massacre photograph
Just two weeks before the 33rd Memorials of June 4th Massacre, a media veteran in Hong Kong found a photograph linked to the Tiananmen crackdown had been banned by Facebook.
The photograph that she posted many years ago showed a tank running over protest student Fang Zhang's legs.
Facebook claimed the photography is inappropriate content linked to "violence and bloodshed".
Even though, Facebook said it didn't violate "Community Standards', it argued that the photograph could be "deemed sensitive to some people."
Notes to editors:
Fang Zheng is a former student protester who was seriously injured during the Tiananmen massacre in 1989 in Beijing, China. During the evacuation of the Square in the early morning of June 4, Fang was run over by a People’s Liberation Army tank, which led to the amputation of both his legs.
