Facebook will label 'harmful' posts as Coca-Cola and Unilever join advertising boycott
Big Boss InterviewAvailable for over a year
Facebook has come under growing pressure to improve the moderation of users' posts. Coca-Cola and Unilever, maker of Marmite and Dove soap, have joined more than 90 other companies which have removed their adverts from the site. Arisha Hatch is from Color of Change, which campaigns for racial justice in the US. We ask her about Facebook's changed policy. Texas and Florida have reimposed some coronavirus-related restrictions. We get the latest from reporter Andrea Perdomo in Florida. And as the British government announces more countries that people may travel to in the summer, how will the tourism industry adapt? We hear from travel journalist Sarah Tucker. Rob Young is joined throughout the programme by Sharon Bretkelly, presenter of the Detail podcast for Radio New Zealand, in Auckland.
