Facebook bans some election adverts

BBC World Service - Newsday, Facebook bans some election adverts

Those which seek to delegitimise the outcome of elections will no longer be carried

Those which seek to delegitimise the outcome of elections will no longer be carried.

Facebook says it is banning, with immediate effect, adverts that seek to delegitimise the outcome of elections, including calling a method of voting inherently fraudulent or corrupt. A  presidential historian and author of a book on voter suppression in the US gives his reaction. 

The wildfires in California are devastating parts of the Napa Valley. We speak to the owner of one of the famed major wineries Castello di Amorosa, which has been lost to the flames. 

And France's highest court has ruled that Felicien Kabuga, who's accused of being the mastermind of the genocide in Rwanda, will have to stand trial at the Arusha tribunal in Tanzania. We get the reaction of group representing survivors.
