Facebook bans Elizabeth Warren Wiki Page
In February 2013, William A. Jacobson (of Legal Insurrection) launched [1] to put in one place the wide range of research regarding Elizabeth Warren conducted during her 2012 Senate campaign against Scott Brown, which stated, "The goal of this Wiki is to be the most comprehensive repository of information and links regarding Elizabeth Warren, United States Senator from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts." The Wiki has received almost 600,000 visits since launch, but Facebook blocked the page that promoted it in Facebook (not the Wiki) because of the false claim that the page violates Facebook’s “impersonation” policy. It was restored on appeal, but the concern is this kind of harassment happens mostly to conservatives, and happens before anyone bothers to check the facts.
