Time Investors
Case #
5708

Instagram censors Time Investors: Time Investors, an organization seeking to provide educational and motivational content, posted a video promoting cutting onions as a way of clearing airways when sick with a cold or flu. 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 an article from Lead Stories. Users must click through this filter to view the video.
