In February, Twitter initially rejected an ad by the Christian radio station Issues, Etc. promoting an interview they had with conservative author Ryan T. Anderson.

Anderson's book When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment had just been published.

However, when the station wanted to promote the interview with a paid tweet, Twitter rejected the ad, claiming that their proposal contained "hateful content."

About a week after rejecting the ad, however, Twitter changed its decision and allowed for the ad promoting the interview to run on the social media site.
