- Description: TLDR; Comcast has removed the scary — and defamatory — warnings it was showing to some readers. Facebook continues to block our editor (that's me) from accessing our Facebook page.

*Literally as soon as we published this update, Facebook emailed us and said they were continuing to investigate*. *(1:03 p.m. November 13, 2026)*

Two quick updates for our readers.

First, the website. The alarming security warnings some of you ran into when you tried to reach us came from Comcast — not from anything wrong with our site. After checking and rechecking, we flagged the pattern to the company using the screenshots you kindly sent us, and the warnings cleared almost immediately. We didn’t get much of an explanation, but at least the warnings are gone.

Second, Facebook. A public relations representative called us and told us we had regained access to our Page and asked us to confirm. We checked — we’re still locked out, and we’ve had no call or email back since. Facebook’s terms of service would have us file a small claims case in Alameda County to press the issue. That’s a drivable distance for us, but it wouldn’t be for most of the small business owners who rely on the platform.

The bottom line: if you want our fact-checked local news and local news investigations, the surest way to get it is straight from the source. Visit *MendoLocal.News* and sign up. We’ll keep sharing on Facebook as long as we can — but becoming a subscriber is by far the best way to follow local news. It's free, though we will ask you for support, especially during our fall fundraiser.
