The helpful hacker demonstrates his techniques on camera for the NBC Nightly News, but lawyers kill the story when he cracks the broadcast network's own systems.

If NBC was dumb enough to ask to be hacked and the attempt was successful I think they probably look shitfaced because now if they air that piece every kiddy scripter and wouldbe hacker will attempt to intrude their network. I think its a smart Idea to remove the segment for security reasons.

Hopefully they can let their admin techs watch that in private and get schooled by a guy who should be working for them securing their network. LOL
