LulzSec Hacks The Sun Newspaper homepage


Looks like hacker group LulzSec is back in action, this time redirecting the homepage of the Murdoch-owned The Sun to a fake story about Murdoch's death from a drug overdose located on the UK Time's URL http://www.new-times.co.uk/sun. They then redirected The Sun's homepage to the @LuzSec Twitter account. (The original page is archived at http://freze.it/pX)


The fake story was meant to mirror an actual The Sun story about the latest development in the Murdoch/New Corp/News of the World mess, "Ex News of the World journalist found dead." After about 10 minutes of being up (and I swear the real Sun homepage was redirecting) the fake story was been pulled from the UK Times site.
