Facebook Doesn't Like Chick-fil-A?

 


Facebook has a feature called Moderation Assist. Supposedly computerized moderation, it's often inconsistent. The past week, we've had blogs on arrests of two men whose families came to their defense, often using some choice words. We also had several comments from LCHS fans that lacked genteel presentation, so our Hidden folder was brimming over.

Looking back at some of the comments, we're unsure why FB removed them, but assume it could have been for a suggestion of violence. One comment was particularly puzzling. The only word not common to many posts here was "Chick-fil-A." 

If you post a polite comment and fail to see it, send us a PM, and we'll check. Just remember, if you comment on a post that's later removed, your comment will also disappear. Moderation Assist enables the user to restore any hidden comments, so we have returned the eatery to its rightful place in restaurant comments.

Giving thanks where due: Mayor Andy Betterton has now made assurances that the Florence Skate Park will be upgraded. From what we have read, the park will be better than before in a few weeks. We do wonder why it took the mayor to get things going?
