Facebook Open Graph started working wrongly when Liking the page

So I have a blog: www.elnacional.com.uy

Each article has it's open graph meta tags, so when someone Likes the article, a title, picture and description are posted on facebook.

But suddenly it started working wrongly, now when u like the page u just get the Link to be posted on facebook, not the description nor the title nor the picture.

And I have no idea what's going on because nothing was changed.

Please use the debugger to troubleshoot your problems.

http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.elnacional.com.uy%2Fjugadores%2Fperalta-hablo-de-lo-que-se-viene-en-el-apertura%2F

This shows the following error:

Object at URL 'http://www.elnacional.com.uy/jugadores/peralta-hablo-de-lo-que-se-viene-en-el-apertura/' is invalid because the configured 'og:type' of 'news' is invalid.

The "news" type for "og:type" isn't a valid type according to the documentation here.

This is why it doesn't know what to do with your title, image and description.

I suggest using the type article as it is documented as

article - Use article for any URL that represents transient content - such as a news article, blog post, photo, video, etc.

The meta tags should be in the head, maybe that's why it isn't working :)
