Seth Rogen on Sony Hack: "Everyone Is Doing Exactly What These Criminals Want"

The trio said the media is giving the hackers just what they want by reporting on the content of Sony's internal files. “Everyone is doing exactly what these criminals want," Rogen said, comparing the media to a pawn shop that works as a fence for organized crime.
Franco questioned how Sony can stop its movies from being distributed online but not its internal documents, to which Rogen answered, “It’s stolen information that media outlets are directly profiting from." Stern asked Franco if he was embarrassed by the disclosure of his $6.5 million paycheck for The Interview. Franco called it "one of the bigger checks that I get" but said his time was worth the money. Rogen said both of their Interview salaries were "a stupid amount of money, but it’s all relative to how much [the studios] are making off of it.”
Directly addressing his issue, he's right. The way dozens of media organizations, and this very website, handled the initial data dumps with cutesy articles about 'Spoiled Angelina' and 'Wacky Channing Tatum'.
They dug through the files to generate clickbait, they were posted right on this sub, and everyone had a laugh and gave tacit approval, ignoring the very damaging personal and medical information data dumps completely. The media tone on this issue has been terrible..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is shocking that a lot of Media Outlets have made Sony the bad guys in this situation. if anything I agree with Howard Stern, we need to all take a step back and go the real criminals are these "Guardians of Peace" and so called Terrorists. They even want to blow up Movie theatres that show the movie.
This is getting out of hand...
