The Russian hackers behind Hillary Clinton’s leaked emails are still at it. This time, Fancy Bear is being accused of targeting hundreds of journalists

The Associated Press found at least 200 journalists have been part of a long-term attack dating back to at least mid-2014. The most recent hacks happened just months ago.

The list AP obtained from cybersecurity firm Secureworks included 50 New York Times journalists, a Washington Post columnist, and a Daily Beast reporter. Along with U.S. journalists, other major hack attempts were focused on the Kyiv Post and other media members in Ukraine and Russia.

After diplomats and U.S. Democrats, journalists were the largest group targeted.

President Donald Trump was hesitant to blame the Russians for the DNC hack. Let's see what he says when they attack the news media.
