WikiLeaks to release emails from CIA director's personal AOL account
Announcement follows hacking of John Brennan’s email account on Monday, allegedly by high school students who call themselves Crackas With Attitude

The hackers, who call themselves CWA (Crackas With Attitude), said they had breached Brennan’s account and followed up with screenshots containing social security numbers, cellphone numbers and email addresses. The cell numbers and email addresses appeared to be genuine.
The hackers have claimed the account contains sensitive information including Brennan’s 47-page application for top-secret security clearance. Authorities told CNN that Brennan’s account did not contain any classified information.
