“A northern Kentucky man was sentenced to five months in prison after he was convicted of hacking accounts on a social networking site to alter some users’ conservative postings. Michael Pullen, a 38-year-old father of two from Dry Ridge, said he would replace racist or homophobic comments with silly statements, such as, ‘I’m super fancy. Why don’t you call me fancy pants?’ Pullen said he began commenting on the social networking site SodaHead.com out of boredom after he was laid off in 2009 from his job of three years. A spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office had been furloughed as part of the government shutdown and was unable to comment.”
