Facebook deletes Norwegian PM's post as 'napalm girl' row escalates

Erna Solberg shared photo that had resulted in writer and newspaper falling foul of social media giant's rules

Facebook has deleted a post by the Norwegian prime minister in an escalating row over the website's decision to remove content featuring the Pulitzer-prize winning "napalm girl" photograph from the Vietnam war.

Erna Solberg, the Conservative prime minister, called on Facebook to "review its editing policy" after it deleted her post voicing support for a Norwegian newspaper that had fallen foul of the social media giant's guidelines.
