Sony Hackers Reveal Top Salaries: Republished By Deadline

Sony hackers divulged salaries of the company’s top executives, and Deadline published the breakdown, claiming “its readers need to know when stuff happens.” That’s an interesting argument, and it’s one that could also be used for the hackers who published naked pictures from the private phones of celebrities, because “the public should know when naked titties have hit the internet.” Good job, deadline. It’s great that your team takes the moral high ground. And as an aside, if you’re going to re-publish the morally depraved work of other websites, at least link to the original content.
