YouTube reverses TalkRadio ban for allegedly breaching content policy

Station was banned from the platform for 12 hours but insists it has robust editorial controls'

YouTube has reversed a short-lived ban of the digital station TalkRadio from its platform, about 12 hours after it removed the organisation's channel for what it said were breaches of its community guidelines.

The station, part of Rupert Murdoch's TalkSport network, said it had not been told by the platform what the most recent breach was. A TalkRadio spokesperson said: We urgently await a detailed response from Google/YouTube about the nature of the breach that has led to our channel being removed from its platform.
