Facebook Slammed by Porn Attack

Facebook Inc.'s latest problem: porn and violence.

The company said Tuesday that a "coordinated spam attack" was to blame for the posting of pornographic and violent images on the Web pages of unsuspecting Facebook users.

Over the past several days, Facebook users have complained of disturbing imagery appearing to come from trusted friends showing up on the site's news feed, which houses posts and images shared by a user's network.
