Reuters editor corrals Anons to hack former employer Tribune

Media

Matthew Keys, a Thomson Reuters editor, allegedly cooperated with “Anonymous” hacktivists to break into a Tribune Company website. Keys, a fired web producer for the Tribune Co-owned television station KTXL FOX 40, in Sacramento, Calif., provided Anonymous members with log-in credentials for a Tribune-owned server, court papers claim. He allegedly encouraged the hackers to disrupt the website. At least one member successfully breached the system to alter the web version of a Los Angeles Times news feature.
