Public Interest Content
Expectations
Context matters. Some content that is newsworthy, educational, satirical, or the subject of public discourse may be allowed, even if it references or depicts things that might otherwise violate elements of our Content Guidelines. We apply editorial judgment in such cases, and we ask that you do the same. This means:
Maintain standards for accuracy
Through appropriate fact checking.
Age- and/or location-gate
In accordance with these Content Guidelines, when appropriate and available.
Avoid shocking Snapchatters
With graphic or disturbing content. When potentially-disturbing content is truly newsworthy, you must use a graphic content warning.
