Twitter marked a photo of Goya Foods products as "potentially sensitive" in error and has corrected the mistake, a Twitter spokesperson told FOX Business on Tuesday.
HOW MUCH IS GOYA FOODS AND CEO UNANUE WORTH?
Two tweets containing photos of Goya Foods products, including one image of a can of beans in a Make America Great Again hat, that were posted by a user named Frank Rizzo were flagged, Media Research Center first reported Monday. The Twitter spokesperson didn't specify if the statement applied to one or both posts.
The error comes after many people took to social media to express displeasure with Goya Foods CEO Robert Unanue after he praised President Trump at a White House event last week.
