Fox News Twitter account hacked

Home / News / Fox News Twitter account hacked

Just after Lulzsec hacked Apple a group Tweeting from @ScriptKiddi3s took credit for a Fox News tweet stating, on the fourth of July, that Barack Obama was dead. Their account is following @LulzSec and @anonymousIRC, responsible for the PlayStation Network hack, so their influences are clear. At least theirs was kind of a joke – although Fox may have done it as a promotion. If Family Guy’s abuse is anything to go by Fox isn’t clever enough for that. Or is it?
