Sony hacks: Sorkin says media are 'morally treasonous'
By Anthony Zurcher
Editor, Echo Chambers
The messages read like something from a bad Hollywood film about Hollywood. The misbehaviour of egotistical studio executives, petulant stars and dictatorial directors seem almost too cliched to be true.
But, apparently, they are.
Major media outlets have been sifting through the voluminous trove of Sony Pictures emails made public by an anonymous group of hackers known as the Guardians of Peace for more than a week, picking out the particularly salacious details.
The resulting stories have provided a candid look at the sometimes ugly, sometimes acrimonious and often darkly amusing interactions that take place between many of the major players in the motion picture industry.
But do these articles constitute legitimate journalism or a gross invasion of privacy?
Oscar-winning screenwriter and producer Aaron Sorkin thinks it's the latter, accusing the media of "giving material aid to criminals".

So the MSM turns on Hollywood - and Hollywood is surprised and crying...makes me laugh how these liberals treat eat other and turn on each other on the first opportunity!
Not being a liberal, I know exactly how they would treat a non-liberal!
Now,that’s a Christmas card! Ha!
Sorkin is right. It does give aid and comfort to North Korea.
Weren’t they all over the Palin hacked emails as well?
I’m sure Sorkin would be the first to shout, “Free speech!” if any conservative complained.
Where can I find a condensed list of all the juicy things our elitists in DC and Hollywood are caught saying?
Newt Gingrich was wiretapped by two lefties who leaked that info to the media which gleefully published the details.
The press, from far right to far left, have trumpeted the 1st amendment in this case, but I have a question. How is this stolen property different from any other stolen property? If CBS were to fence an unreleased Sony motion picture, they would be successfully prosecuted in any court in the country. Private emails are private property.
It’s always good for a chuckle when anti-Christian zealots start preaching about morality. It’s equally amusing when leftists cry treason.
Is that the same morally righteous Sony that has released:
-Sex Tape
-30 Minutes Or Less
-Friends With Benefits
-Bad Teacher
-Priest
-Burlesque
-The Virginity Hit
-Prom Night
among many others?
It’s morally treasonous when the files expose liberal hypocrisy. I get it.
Wait...wait...
Since when does the media have morals at all?
It just gives the Hollyweird people a glimpse of what the NSA has.
“It’s always good for a chuckle when anti-Christian zealots start preaching about morality. It’s equally amusing when leftists cry treason.”
I love it! Quote of the Day!
A hacker group with the name “Guardians of Peace” is obviously commie. Mass-murderer-wannabees, as well as their mass-murdering heroes, always talk about peace — gun confiscation in ensure peace, ‘social justice’ to ensure peace...
“I hate Communists”... said in my best take off on a ‘Blues Brother’s’ voice...
