Is there some reason we cannot put the reason for the removal (misinformation) in the headline of this HN story, and save everyone the guessing/speculation?

- 542458 3y agoYeah, I think the title here was editorialized. TLA's title is "YouTube removed video of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for violating vaccine misinformation policy", whereas the HN title is "YouTube Removes R.F. Kennedy Presidential Candidate Interview", which makes it sounds like YouTube removed official campaign materials.

- stcroixx 3y agoWe'd just have to guess/speculate why they labeled it 'misinformation'. Nobody actually believes YouTube has any qualifications whatsoever to decide that. It's not a valid justification unless you accept corporate authoritarian censorship.
