Seems as if there iTunes and Apple have their own sort of Twitter shadowbannning. iTunes ‘allegedly’ demoted a Christian podcast by Pastor James MacDonald for daring to ask his followers to pray for the President of the United States.

A Christian pastor had his podcast demoted on Apple iTunes because he asked that people pray for President Trump.
According to CBN News, Pastor James MacDonald had his podcast, “Walk in the Word,” dropped from the Top 25 chart completely within 24 hours of him posting a prayer on Facebook for President Trump.
“In the past the podcast had never dipped below the Top 40, within 24 hours it wasn’t even making the Top 200,” reports CBN
The word “shadowbanning” has been the common buzzword lately with the liberal publication VICE admitting that Twitter hinders conservative speech behind closed doors.
Speaking with CBN, MacDonald said that he wasn’t “Donald Trump’s biggest fan,” only that he found the administration “worthy of our gratitude and prayerful support.”
Dan Sumpter, global creative director of Harvest Church, says the sudden drop of MacDonald’s podcast looks oddly suspicious.
