In a move that is seen as effort to stop media houses from glorifying terror attack and pushing terrorists propaganda, Twitter Inc has temporarily suspended Twitter account for New York Times photos .
The Twitter account was earlier used to publish photos of dead civilians following an attack at Riverside Drive in Westlands, Nairobi.. “I apologize on behalf of @nytimes and @nytphoto for causing anger and anguish over the photos that have been published with our reporting. Thank you,” Kimiko de Freytas-Tamura tweeted.
