LulzSec hacks website of The Sun and publishes fake story about Murdoch’s death
Soure:Raw Story
By Eric W. Dolan

The infamous hacker group LulzSec made a comeback on Monday by hacking the website of the British tabloid The Sun, owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, and redirecting the frontpage to a fake story about Murdoch being found dead.

The story read: "Rupert Murdoch, the controversial media mogul, has reportedly been found dead in his garden, police announce. Murdoch, aged 80, has said to have ingested a large quantity of palladium before stumbling into his famous topiary garden late last night, passing out in the early hours of the morning."

The group also hacked the website of Murdoch's United Kingdom newspaper publishing division, News International.

LulzSec took responsibility on their Twitter account for defacing The Sun's website, adding that "this is only the beginning."
