Our staffers tested several Facebook accounts here in our newsroom and did experience the same problem. A message popped up stating "an error occurred please try again in a few minutes."
Our staffers tried to "like" and "comment" on several posts multiple times and received the same error message. However, one of our reporters was able to post a comment.
Monday afternoon, a spokesperson for Facebook issued this statement to media:
"Earlier this morning, while performing some network maintenance, we experienced an issue that prevented some users from posting to Facebook for a brief period of time. We resolved the issue quickly, and we are now back to 100 percent. We're sorry for any inconvenience we may have caused."
