      Facebook allows for content with news value but the moderation is very hit-and-miss. Price of doing it on the cheap. Too few skilled people.

      Facebook relying so much on "community policing" means that anything with a whiff of importance is attacked in an organized manner.

      Would a New York Times today—that relies so much on Facebook for distribution—put that photo with a story? Would it self censor?

      We hear of the high-profile cases like this, and they often get reversed after outcry. But this does happen all the time without notice.

      Yes, moderating 1.5 billion people is hard. But 1.5 billion users gives Facebook a market cap of $370 billion. It has to invest in content.

          as @jhagel might argue, automated efficiencies have diminishing returns but a liberal arts education is more important than ever.
