So, in March, @BBC published a report about Hallwang, specifically about Gemma Nuttall, a young woman with ovarian cancer who sought treatment there. Her family raised thousands of pounds online, with the support of actress Kate Winslet, to send her there, and I wrote about it.4/

And here's the Wayback Machine version of the same link. As you can see, the reporting appears to have been quite solid. 15/https://web.archive.org/web/20190306123354/https://www.bbc.com/news/health-47442946 …

Because
@BBC cravenly caved, I had little choice but to take my post down too, at least temporarily. Basically, the BBC had left me and any others who had commented on its story out to dry, and having broken links on the blog is bad anyway. 16/pic.twitter.com/JdDg5eBssY

Why did
@BBC, sometime between March and now, delete the Tweet? It doesn't look good. It sure looks like the BBC caved, but I can't know for sure. 17/Show this thread -
I'm not the only one who was threatened by Hallwang for comnenting on the BBC story; so it seems likely that
@BBC surrendered to the legal thuggery of what I consider to be a quack clinic. For shame! 18/Show this thread -

I have contacted the BBC to ask why it was removed - the feelings of the family might have been the reason.

I don't think so. The
@BBC was going to fight in March, and the feelings of the family were the same then. Also, if it were the feelings of the family, why not announce the reason instead of sneakily just deleting the story?

I hate to tell you this, but our beloved BBC seems to have been taken over by a more right wing management. Impartiality a thing of the past. Breaks my heart, Radio 4 still seems sensible but for how long?
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I was wondering about this. I'd saved the link to come back to for a chapter I'm writing and was getting the error message last week. Thanks for explaining.

You can still see the full televised pieces on my blog post answering the
@vicderbyshire pieces by@jim_reed. Please credit my blog if you use anything. The clinic saved my life in 2017, as it has done many others. http://tryingtobeatcancer.org.uk/an-answer-to-victoria-derbyshire-articles-on-the-hallwang-clinic/ …
