Rupert Murdoch: Chinese are still hacking the WSJ
LONDON (AP) — Wall Street Journal proprietor Rupert Murdoch says that Chinese hackers are still attacking his newspaper, suggesting the spying campaign against U.S. journalists unveiled last week is still live.
In a brief message posted to Twitter, Murdoch said late Tuesday that "Chinese still hacking us, or were over weekend."
The Journal is one of a series of news organizations that have revealed that they were hit by what have been described as China-based hackers.
The New York Times and The Washington Post have also reported that their computer systems were breached in similar incidents, while Bloomberg News said it managed to deflect a hacking attempt.
Messages seeking further comment from Dow Jones, the Journal's publisher, were not immediately returned Wednesday.

@lee986321 Did you mean rupert or the chinese??
Because rupert Owns the S&P which destroyed the American credit rating..
 @uknow2 The private-Federal Reserve destroyed the American credit rating. The US has no one to blame but themselves for not reigning in the fed sooner. Now they're pretty much untouchable and out of control. The US spends far more money than they take in taxes so they need to fed to create fiat money out of thin air.
