Microsoft Apologizes for Photoshop Trainwreck
Earlier today, two screenshots of an ad from one of Microsoft’s sites began circling internet forums and blogs: one depicted a conference table with a couple of happy employees: an Asian man, a black man, and a white woman. The other image was from the Polish version of the same site, and it’s identical to the first one, except the head of the black man was replaced with a head of a white man.
