Facebook does not want you to see Bea Arthur's boobs

Bea Arthur’s Boobs Got Us Booted From Facebook
Brian Ries/The Daily Beast wrote:In the end, I was done in by Bea Arthur’s boobs.

As the social media editor for The Daily Beast, I have posted countless potentially offensive stories on our Facebook page, from the sexual proclivities of porn stars to purported cannibalism in Syria. But not until we linked to a piece about the Golden Girl’s breasts did Facebook shut us down.

For a crime that wasn’t a crime. For a so-called offensive image that was an actual piece of art valued at roughly $2 million.

Way to go, Facebook people.

The error message was unequivocal: our “account(s) could be permanently disabled if you continue to post things that violate our terms.”

Ya know, "Bea Arthur's Boobs" would be a great name for a band.

Or a Three Stooges type comedy act.
