Apparently, The Onion is next on the hack list for the Syrian Electronic Army. After hacking many other large international publishing companies, it appears that The Onion has been hacked by this group. It is unclear whether this hack is legitimate or not, because The Onion is a satirical news site.
In addition to The Onion, an Associated Press hack had the stock market take a little dip just a few days ago.
Twitter is claiming to be creating a two-step verification system for login. But for now, we are stuck with just regular passwords.
As The Onion always adds satire into news events, they have apparently changed their Twitter password to "OnionMan77", just to make their Twitter account "impenetrable".
Below is a screenshot of the tweets from the apparent SEA hack.
