MELBOURNE/SYDNEY: Some New Zealand companies are weighing whether to advertise on social media, as two industry groups urged them not to in the wake of last week's mass shooting in Christchurch that was livestreamed on Facebook and redistributed on other platforms.
Fifty people were killed and dozens wounded in the shootings at two mosques in Christchurch on March 15. Australian Brenton Harrison Tarrant, 28, a suspected white supremacist, was charged with murder on March 16.
