Facebook just pulled/blocked the Rolling Stone article about Bernie.

[MelissaB]

I posted it and got a like and comment and went to comment back and it had disappeared. I then tried to link it again and got this message:

This is the article I'm talking about: http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/give-em-hell-bernie-20150429?page=2
Somebody else please test this on fb.

UPDATE
This appears to be a facebook glitch. It seems others are reporting similar problems with posts.

1. It's likely a computer error.

I don't see why they would block that, and I also don't see how someone could have alerted on it.

It's not censorship.

ETA: It seems like a url error, interesting because I got the same error as well. Trying to figure it out.

ETA2: Still can't really determine why this is happening. I doubted it was censorship but this is odd. Still looking at blogs and I have an email in to Facebook.

2. I tried to post it again and got this:

You can't post this because it has a blocked link

The content you're trying to share includes a link that our security systems detected to be unsafe:

Please remove this link to continue.

Maybe facebook is just having issues, but I tried another news article and was able to post it. I'm going to test again, though.

3. Blocked

4. Weird. I found RS's original post and tried to "like" it, and got this:

"The post or object that you liked has been removed by its owner and can no longer be liked."

Their post came up in a search, but when I go to the RS page, the post isn't there.

I wonder if Rolling Stone themselves took it out?

5. It has vanished from my wall. What the serious frack?!

6. It appears to be a Facebook glitch. Other links and pages are having the same problem

Right now my news feed is full of pages saying "we don't know what's happening, must be a Facebook thing"

[Agschmid]

7. Agree.

I tried a macrumors link and got the same thing.

[MelissaB]

8. Aahhhh... the facebook gremlins.

Thanks!

The odd thing is I tested two other news articles and they posted without a problem. It probably is just a hiccup, though.

9. "The Content you are trying to show includes a link that our security systems flagged as unsafe"

I have seen other links to Bernie's announcement. I don't think it is a attack on Bernie, but something about one of Rolling Stones Advertisers.

10. I went to share that article and it would not post either. nt

12. Appears the dirty tricks have already started. Means he may really scare the bastards. Awesome!

[Agschmid]

13. There are some blogs posting about this issue right now.

It doesn't seem to be effecting everything, but it does seem to be systemwide.

[Enthusiast]

20. There will be a mountain of dirty tricks.

I'm glad they perceive Bernie as a threat.

[JoelStephens]

14. Not a system error - very deliberate.

I run a Bernie Sanders Facebook group and noticed many Sanders related links/photos had been removed. Among the sites blocked include:

http://www.ontheissues.org/house/Bernie_Sanders.htm
The aforementioned Rolling Stones Article
An article from Huffington Post Politics

I'm glad this thread was created - the other members of the group and I are scrambling to find the answer. I hope this gets attention.

I should also note that other pages from "On the Issues" were allowed to be posted, including Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.

15. I have screen shots if they are ever needed for anything. n/t

[octoberlib]

16. I have posted articles on other subjects with no problem. I sent a complaint to Facebook.

[JoelStephens]

17. And we're back...

After a short Koch brothers-funded delay. INTIMIDATION TACTICS! Hahahaha... hopefully this won't be a common occurrence.

I guess I spoke too soon. Previews are back up on FB, but the links are still blocked.

[octoberlib]

18. I just tried it again and the post went through. Let's see if it stays.

[Downwinder]

22. Welcome aboard. Thanks for the info.

Might you stay with us for awhile?

[Agschmid]

19. It appears to be fixed.

[G_j]

21. Give 'Em Hell, Bernie is still up on my FB page

with eight likes hope it's just a glitch for you.

[JoelStephens]

23. We appear to be back up and running. Hopefully this isn't a common occurrence...

That would suck.
