Obama Questions Sony Judgment: “Sony Made a Mistake…I Wish They’d Spoken to Me First”
In a press conference this afternoon, President Barack Obama said that Sony made a mistake giving in to the Korean hackers. “I wish they’d called me first,” he said, before cancelling The Interview and letting the cyber terrorist get their way.
Obama’s observation that was he sympathetic to their concerns, but didn’t approve of how the company handled it, really strikes a blow to the company’s executives. Now the president of the United States isn’t standing behind them. It also indicates that Sony top brass didn’t have any conversations with the White House about what was going on. Seth Rogen and James Franco must be livid now.
More to come…
