Less than a month after Facebook apologized for removing a photo of two men kissing, the social networking site has axed another gay kiss photo. Facebook did not approve an ad for Greek film Attenberg, which shows two women touching tongues. In a statement on its Facebook page, TriArt Film notes that Facebook did allow an ad for a different movie, which features an intense male-female kiss. "We're confused," says the CEO. See the picture on AdWeek, which notes that the image "is a little off-putting completely separate from the gender issue." (More Facebook stories.)
