Obvious Spam on the Site's Front Page

There is currently spam on the front page of the site for car accident lawyers.
It is there because some slimeballs opened an account and made a journal entry.
(I previously saw another such item; can't remember what that lot was hawking.)

Should removing that spam be a priority?
Is that currently difficult (with everything now being automatically forwarded to the front page)?

Should there be a special page for reporting such spam?
(Gentoo's forum has such a page and it is very effective.)
