To show off its new Ping service Apple showed what the latest tweets from LadyGaga to fully example the service. Though some eagle eyed apple users noticed a number of missing tweets from the Gaga feed, mainly the posts about gay equality.
"Oh Apple. Gambling and strip clubs make the cut, but not gay rights? Nope, chop those out with the references to hookers, manwhores, and gingers."-Blaghag (website has more pics)
hopefully it is more like a PR mess up, rather than a new social network service which will be censoring celeb tweets. I hope that's what happened, because what will we do without the full wisdom of 50cent http://www.buzzfeed.com/awesomer/the-wisdom-of-50-cent

I don't blame them, I don't want to see some random gay rant on Ping. Ping is rubbish as it is...
