At HuffPo, you can ‘like’ the royal wedding coverage, but can’t ‘like’ Bin Laden’s death

Come on, Huffington Post, just switch to a Facebook "Recommend" button for all your news and opinion articles. That way you won't have to make editorial judgments about which stories can carry a Facebook "Like" button and which a "Recommend" button.
It's getting a little bit absurd.
Today you can share stories about the royal wedding of William and Kate with the Facebook Like button. But you can't "Like" stories on the death of terrorist Osama Bin Laden. Those carry a "Recommend" button. (See photo above.)
AOL's HuffPo should change that.
