You present no evidence that this is true. You just fan the flames of outrage by assuming that a deleted post means a conspiracy. It seems far more likely that it was caught by a spam filter, or by a Reddit mod, or by a Reddit admin who mistook it for actual CP. The users in that thread are somehow outraged that a breaking news event is not receiving massive worldwide coverage despite a) it not being very important and b) not having a particularly good source.

It literally says "[Removed by Reddit]" and that "Reddit sometimes deletes posts that violate the site's content policy." I think maybe you're looking at the old version of reddit. On the new version, you can see the admin removal. Hmm, no, it shows up on the old version too. The reason I posted it is that it's interesting and new; I haven't ever seen Reddit admins manually delete a post before. Certainly not something of this magnitude. Reading over the content policy, the only rule that seems applicable is "Do not post or encourage the posting of sexual or suggestive content involving minors," or "Respect the privacy of others. Instigating harassment, for example by revealing someone’s personal or confidential information is not allowed." But both of those seem like a stretch.
