It\u2019s when he says we shouldn\u2019t be bowing down to sovereign terrorists from North Korea<\/a>. \u00a0 Here\u2019s your Quote of the Week,<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a responsibility to stand up against this. That\u2019s not just Sony, but all of us, including my good friends in the press who have the responsibility to be asking themselves: What was important? What was the important story to be covering here? The hacking is terrible because of the damage they did to all those people. Their medical records, that is a horrible thing, their Social Security numbers. Then, to turn around and threaten to blow people up and kill people, and just by that threat alone we change what we do for a living, that\u2019s the actual definition of terrorism.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also, check in with Tom McDonald\u2019s Remember When Artists Had Courage?<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>Personally, I think the artists have plenty of courage. Their studio executives? Not so much. As a nation, though, this decision is intolerable.<\/p>\n
