Facebook briefly removed Roger Ebert's Facebook Page for a violation of its terms of use, after Ebert made a comment about the recently deceased Jackass star Ryan Dunn.

Just like in his tweet, Ebert posted the sentence "Friends don't let jackasses drink and drive" to his Facebook Page, which resulted in complaints from several Facebook users.

Facebook reacted by removing Ebert's page completely, but only briefly; the page is now back up.

During the downtime, Ebert sent this tweet:







It's not surprising Ebert's tweet and Facebook update roused controversy. The police are still investigating the reasons behind Dunn's death and have so far only cited speed as a factor.

What do you think: Was Facebook right to shut down Ebert's page?
