Why Should Hackers Censor What I Watch At The Cinema?
As one of my friends was born in Korea, I was quite looking to seeing The Interview.
However, it now appears that Sony has cancelled all showings of the film in response to threats from hackers.
In response, I will not buy any more Sony products. Not that I have for a couple of years.
Surely, the film makers were only following the route of Charlie Chaplin in The Great Dictator.
Properly used humour is a vicious weapon and I’ve been wondering what Joan Rivers would have said of the cancellation.
I hope that Have I got News For You give the whole story comprehensive coverage.
I decide what I watch, not dictators, hackers or those with weird political views!
At least the film will soon be available on the Internet, as Sony’s Plastic Collander Of Security, will have let at least one complete copy escape.
Some of the clips have started surfacing. The First one I saw was the ending piece that featured the assassination itself.

I suppose you realise that’s my real name.
I’ve always had this idea for a reality TV show, where perhaps 30 or so, James Millers, book the same hotel for a weekend. A crew will video the chaos. I think there’s only one pair of names more common and that is Michael Smith. I’ve personally known three and there have been umpteen in the media and sport.
