Twitter censors user for calling Bette Midler a racist: A Twitter user shared a screenshot of her censorship notice. The user had tweeted "@BetteMidler Racist bitch. Go ahead and ban me, Twitter, but Bette's a racist bitch and you fucking know it. Bet you wish South Africa still had Apartheid, Bette, so you could enjoy some vacation time away from the 'coloreds', don't you?" Twitter claimed this violated its "rules against hateful conduct." The user's account was locked until she deleted the tweet.
