From crime stories to weather, Facebook continues to remove our posts. The most recent removal was a severe thunderstorm warning I posted last night.
If you rely on Facebook for local news, including information you need to know about your community to keep your family safe, don’t. The social media network has been removing these types of posts, noting that they go against community standards.
Don’t miss a post. Leave a tab in your browser that is fixed to potomaclocal.com, and check back throughout the day for updates. You can also sign up for our FREE newsletter, which is sent to members and non-members each day we post news on our website.
