What happened?

A pro-life film has been briefly banned by a social media website. Unplanned, which tells the true story of ex-Planned Parenthood worker Abby Johnson, opened last weekend. Twitter suspended its account, but restored it after an outcry. The story helped increase the film’s Twitter followers from a few thousand to over 300,000.

Why was it under-reported?

Although the incident received some coverage, it was largely neglected by mainstream publications. TV stations had also rejected the film’s trailer. So the film had stayed under the radar.
