Snowflake Tears
Case #
5707

Instagram censors Snowflake Tears: The satire account, Snowflake Tears, posted a video reacting to Target’s marketing of “tuck-friendly” children’s swimsuit and other pride-themed merchandise marketed for children. Instagram obscured the post with a fact-check interstitial. The interstitial says, “The same false information was reviewed in another post by fact-checkers. There may be small differences. Independent fact-checkers say this information has no basis in fact.” It also linked to articles from AFP Fact Check and Check Your Fact. Users must click through this filter to view the video.
