HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) -- U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal says Facebook has agreed to remove some pages from the social media site related to December's shootings in Newtown.

Blumenthal, along with U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy and U.S. Rep. Elizabeth Esty, all Connecticut Democrats, had complained about the so-called tribute pages in a letter sent Monday morning to Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg.

Not altogether a bad thing.
I will demand that no videos of the unannounced (and unwelcome) intrusion of the First Sasquatch at the Academy Awards be allowed.

The result was permanently emotionally traumatic, and I may have to apply for permanent disability Social Security supplementary income as a result.

Worst inappropriate abuse of the public airways I can remember. Perhaps the FCC can help? This was over the air inappropriate content!

Yeah, I started to figure that out and dropped my account. I'm still surprised they would start dumping pages though, as they've got a lot of right-wing folks on their site as well.

These PP-loving libs are pitiful. Don’t think Mark Zuckerberg will be hosting a Bobby Jindal fundraiser anytime soon, though.
