Sony Pictures Demands That News Agencies Delete 'Stolen' Data
Source: New York Times
Sony Pictures Entertainment warned media outlets on Sunday against using the mountains of corporate data revealed by hackers who attacked the studio’s computer systems.
In a sharply worded letter sent to news organizations, including The New York Times, David Boies, a lawyer for Sony, characterized the documents posted online as “stolen information” and demanded that they be avoided, and destroyed if they had already been downloaded or otherwise acquired.

I keep hearing about all these emails, but quite often never really hear, what's exactly in them. Today (12-14-14), the media mentioned Will Smith's kids, but didn't say what exactly was said about them. So many news networks, and TV stations belong to movie studios, that the media seems reluctant to spill anything. 
Went to Wikipedia and found out that Streisand starred in these films owned by subsidiaries of Sony...
Funny Girl
The Owl and the Pussycat
The Mirror Has Two Faces
And her albums are generally distributed by another Sony subsidiary, Columbia Records!
How can this executive be such a hilariously ironic dumbass, not understanding that the biggest rule about the Information Age is named after one of his studio's biggest stars?
