Was The Real News website hacked or are they being censored? Common Sense sez BOTH!

As I Google "The Real News" right now (7/20/2011 at ~11am PST), a peculiar results pages comes up warning "This site may harm your computer":

 

Clicking any of the Google links brings up this wall:

 

 Manually entering the Real News URL brings up this wall:

Clicking "Get me out of here!" brings me to a Google Search.  Clicking "Ignore this warning" merely reloads the same wall.  Clicking "Why was this page blocked?" brings up this:

Clicking "Ignore this warning" multiple times eventually brings me to a skeleton version of The Real News homepage.  Clicking any link on the homepage brings me back to:

The Real News is known for aggressively reporting on government, big business, and media corruption.  Over the last week, they have been covering the Rupert Murdoch scandal with telling video reports like "Rupert Murdoch Shaped British Politics For Forty Years":

This morning The Real News issued an email Press Release :

The Real News website has suffered a hack attack. If you visit the site you will be seeing various warning message. We are investigating the problem and are trying to repel the attack. This a serious and targeted assault on our site. We are working to fix this and identify who is responsible.

Who could possibly be behind the hacking?  Murdoch and Co?  Perhaps.  Some other powerful entity bent on controlling the media?  Just as likely, given The Real News aggressive reporting on the biggest issues.

Or could it be Anonymous, LulzSec, or other Hacktivists?  Very, very doubtful.

MEGAHACK on MURDOCH: all 1,024 News International web addresses are currently down

All of Rupert Murdoch's News International websites are now offline in the wake of the LulzSec hacker group's series of attacks earlier today.  News International's DNS servers and all 1,024 web addresses are currently down, according to James Ball, Data Journalist for The Guardian.

These claims seem accurate: websites for prominent UK newsrags The Sun, The Times, and News International are all inaccessible at the time of writing.  Earlier today The Sun homepage redirected to a false report of Rupert Murdoch’s death.  Later it directed visitors to the LulzSec twitter feed.

Currently News International is either being shut down by hackers or voluntarily pulled the plug on it's own servers to prevent additional hacks.  One certainty is that today billionaire media tycoon Rupert Murdoch got OWNED.  Let that be a lesson to all with the wealth, power, and influence to spin lies and promote an agenda while claiming to be "Fair and Balanced."

Murdoch's Sun Website Hacked, Reports Murdoch Died of Overdose

The attack on the Murdoch Media Empire is escalating to whole new levels.  Today Murdoch's Sun website was hacked and immediately redirected visitors to an article reporting that Murdoch died in his "famous topiary garden" after melting down and ingesting large quantities of the precious metal Palladium:

 

Hacker collective LulzSec is back in action and are claiming this attack.  Clearly they are the ones behind it, as earlier today The Sun's website was automatically redirecting visitors to the LulzSec twitter feed.

LulzSec is currently tweeting scorchers like the following to its 300,000 followers. 

At the time of writing http://www.thesun.co.uk/ is out of commission completely.  Good riddance.

As we all know, Murdoch is the billionaire media tycoon behind the Neo-Con spin machine Fox News and numerous other sketchy media outlets.  Apparently spreading blatant lies under the guise of mainstream reporting is no longer acceptable.

It's about time.

Young Murdoch looking creepy in happier days.  He's probably not looking so smug right now.

Please help spread the truth about Rupert Murdoch, Faux News, and the Media Monopolies which have held the world hostage for too long.
