X flags NPR story on Trump, Arlington as unsafe

The social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, flagged a story from NPR regarding a reported confrontation between Donald Trump's campaign staff and officials at Arlington National Cemetery as potentially "unsafe." The incident occurred when a photographer from Trump's team attempted to access a restricted area during a visit to commemorate the anniversary of the Kabul airport attack. Trump's campaign denied any physical altercation, while the Army supported the cemetery staff, stating they were enforcing rules against political activities on the grounds. Users attempting to access the NPR article were redirected to a warning page indicating the link might be unsafe. NPR later reported that the blockage was a "false positive" and had been resolved after changing the story's URL. This incident highlights ongoing tensions between NPR and conservative critics, particularly since Elon Musk's acquisition of X, which has seen NPR cease posting on the platform.
