    Twitter accounts of Obama, Britney Spears hacked



    The Twitter accounts of President-elect Barack Obama, CNN anchor Rick Sanchez, Britney Spears, Fox News and 29 others were hacked Monday according to the microblog site, leading to false and inappropriate messages being posted on their accounts. First Fox News Twitter followers read a false message about Bill O'Reilly's sexuality Monday morning after hackers launched several attacks. Then came the attack on pop princess Britney Spears private parts. CNN anchor Rick Sanchez, who uses Twitter on his TV show to interact with the audience, also fell victim to the scam, when a hacker posted about drugs on his account.

    If you're not famous, your Twitter account is probably safe. To see for sure, read the entire story at CNN.com.
