Fox News Sticks with Statement After Hack Attack

In the hours after a Fox News’ Twitter account was hacked, both Fox and Twitter have stuck with their statements on the issue, declining to elaborate any further.

A group called “Script Kiddies” cracked the @FoxNewsPolitics account and sent tweets stating that President Obama had been assassinated. (He spent the weekend with his family in Camp David.) There is a statement online now, with a comment from Fox New Digital’s VP Jeff Misenti stating that they’ve asked Twitter for further details and preventative measures.
