Facebook, Twitter, Youtube face hate speech complaints in France

PARIS (Reuters) - Three French anti-racism associations said on Sunday they would file legal complaints against social networks Facebook (FB.O), Twitter (TWTR.N) and Google's Youtube (GOOGL.O) for failing to remove "hateful" content posted on their platforms. French law requires websites to take down racist, homophobic or anti-semitic material and tell authorities about it.
