Moderators Social Media Struggle Celebration UnitedHealthcare CEO Assassination

Social media managers and moderators are struggling to curb online celebration of the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson while staying within platforms' terms of use. Thompson, who reportedly received a $10.2 million annual pay package, was shot outside his Midtown Manhattan hotel just before 7 a.m., an hour before his company's investor conference began. On Reddit, dozens of posts about Thompson in the last 48 hours were caught by r/undelete, meaning the most popular recently deleted content concerned the assassination, and many had thousands of upvotes when removed.
