Twitter Inc. is no longer describing National Public Radio as “US state-affiliated media,” instead labeling it as “Government Funded Media” in a tag near the top of the broadcaster’s profile.
The social-media company made the change following backlash from NPR, which last week called the designation disturbing and unacceptable. NPR has 8.8 million Twitter followers.
