SOCIAL MEDIA POLICY: The purpose of this page is to be a place for respectful conversation about local news and topics relevant to our community, where everyone can have a voice.
The Graham Leader reserves the sole right to review, edit and/or hide any comments it deems inappropriate. Comments, including, but not limited to, the following may be deleted or edited if deemed inappropriate or irrelevant by the moderators:
• Be professional and don’t get personal. A good general rule to follow is, “criticize ideas, not people
• Inappropriate language will be automatically filtered on our page and your comment will be hidden
• Off-topic and redundant (aka “spamming”) comments (this includes promotion or solicitation of events, groups, pages, websites, organizations, products and programs)
• Comments using “hate speech”
• Personal attacks or defamatory statements or comments (i.e., making negative personal speculative or untrue comments about a participant) instead of just criticizing his/her posting, opinion or comments
• Comments that violate the privacy of any individual
• Comments that are derogatory characterizations of any ethnic, racial, gender, professional, age or religious groups
• Content that defames, misrepresents or contains disparaging remarks about other people, products or companies
(Our social media policy will be updated on an as-needed basis.)
