Reproduction Steps

1. Enable local live staging on the default site (maintaining the default configurations);
2. Create a new basic web content;
3. Put an Asset Publisher on the Welcome page and configure it in this way:
   "Asset Selection" Tab: Asset Type -> Web Content Article / Any
   "Display Settings" Tab:
   Display Template -> Full Content
   Enable Comments -> True
4. Publish to live (page + Web Content).
5. Add a new comment for the web-content in the Asset Publisher (in live).
