We agree that the two ads in question were in poor taste and deeply regret that they slipped through our screening process.

They had a screening process for these ads and using that process they chose to post them. They later decided the flack wasn't worth it.
They did not simply post everything that was submitted. That in itself implies a level of endorsement. Had the reaction been better they would have run with them.
