CNN Website Targeted by DoS

antifoidulus writes "CNN is reporting that they were the target of a Denial of Service attack yesterday. According to the article, there have been reports on Asian tech sites that Chinese hackers were targeting CNN for their coverage of the unrest in Tibet. One has to wonder if this hacking attempt was government sponsored or not. The Chinese government hasn't been very happy with CNN -- in fact, the Beijing Bureau Chief has been summoned about a day before this happened."

"Berlin olympics is going to repeat"

Thats exactly what the CNN/Reps want to prove. Desperately. So that the media can report about it incessantly while completely shelving the massive loot in Iraq and Africa.
After all it's election time, friends.

What's more, apparently, the US has just given $7 BILLION to the Pakis to fight terrorism. Last heard, the western borders of Pakistan (touching Afghanistan) is where Al Qaeda leaders hide. Now all it takes is just one high-level traitor like AQ Khan to disburse the cash for exactly the opposite - to FUND terror - which is what China is fearing - openly.
While you can't say who's lying, there's a real shady game being played out and it's not Olympics.

It's mostly media manipulation - as it is the CNN and co. specialize in frightening Americans out of their senses. Constantly bombarding the common man with fear and shock naturally makes him vote for "the protector".

Prove me wrong, please, and I'll sleep happily.
