Has he received his medal yet? If not, have one of mine.
Don't worry, I've gotten plenty from Facebook. 
In size Nathan it is tabloid size, but the newspaper with the
most sales in the UK.
The Daily Mail was only one source that I picked as it opens
without any trouble, all papers carried the story including the
BBC News broadcasts.
Ask Google or any other search engine and you will find one
that you like.
Mike.

My bf is always in fakebook jail. He has two accounts and sometimes both are in jail. Anywhere from 24 hours to 30 days.
I shared a coconut pie recipe and they took it down and told me it went against their so called "community standards" (of which they have none). I told them what I thought and for them to put it back up. They reviewed it and put it back up.
I have reported filthy language and pictures but they told me it did not go against their "community standards".
Now I admit I put up a lot of memes that make fun of fakebook and they have not taken it down or marked it as not true. So I figure they are true.

From Facebook: “One challenge is identifying potential violations of our standards so that we can review them. Technology can help here. We use a combination of artificial intelligence and reports from people to identify posts, pictures or other content that likely violates our Community Standards. These reports are reviewed by our Community Operations team, who work 24/7 in over 40 languages. Right now, we have more than 7,500 content reviewers, over 40% more than the number at this time last year.
Another challenge is accurately applying our policies to the content that has been flagged to us. In some cases, we make mistakes because our policies are not sufficiently clear to our content reviewers; when that’s the case, we work to fill those gaps. More often than not, however, we make mistakes because our processes involve people, and people are fallible.
Also from Facebook: “
Community Standards outline what is and is not allowed on Facebook.
These policies are based on feedback from our community and the advice of experts in fields such as technology, public safety and human rights.
Community Standards are written to ensure that everyone’s voice is valued and Facebook takes great care to craft policies that are inclusive of different views and beliefs- in particular those of people and communities that might otherwise be overlooked or marginalized.”

Facebook apologises for flagging Plymouth Hoe as an offensive term.
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news...ologises-flagging-plymouth-hoe-offensive-term
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news...ologises-flagging-plymouth-hoe-offensive-term
this is the problem .....the Standards are vague and can encompass everything or Nothing depending on how the wind blows......
People need to quit being offended by everything..... twisting another persons words or leaving out items to make it look offensive......
I quit using FB but when i was on it i had friends that posted items i disagreed with .... you can snooze from them or un- friend even block them but some take the idea to not ignore but somehow attempt to shut them up by reporting it as offensive or something ..... people need to find a hobby other then cancel culture

I don't think there's a guy in Facebook's back room, who is a the "banner", reading a million post an hour. It's a computer program, designed to stop what the company feels is abuse of Facebook. Of course, a computer program, which does not understand the meaning of the words, is going to make what we consider as mistakes. The program is not human, sifting through vast amounts to text, so it is not going to "understand" the various ways were use language.

You’re exactly right. There is AI and algorithms that are generated to detect what look like violations of the community standards. But we all know how incredibly nuanced communication between humans can be. A raised eyebrow, a smile or a frown, a pause before or after a word, al voice inflection, all of these things and countless other communication variables can completely change the meaning of a word or a sentence. To date, no algorithm or AI in the world can capture those nuances completely.
Which is why there is a large body of fb employees whose sole job it is to verify or reject the countless reports from humans or detected apparent violations from the algorithm.
