Sony initially refused all demands and threats, even in spite of the leaked emails and data from many of Sony’s affiliates and executives regarding their private correspondence (often damning and exposing), which have been revealed to the masses. However, after North Korea threatened “9/11-style bombings” of theaters pushed Sony over they edge, and yesterday, they pulled the movie.

Writers and stars of The Interview Seth Rogen and James Franco have spoken out about the Sony hacking scandal, and criticise the media’s response to the situation, and remarked on Sony’s decisions;

During an appearance on ABC News, Franco and Rogen addressed the issue in a much more serious matter:
