During an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday, director Oliver Stone accused the Democratic National Committee of hacking itself. Asked by the host what he makes of the reports that Russian hackers breached the DNC's email server and fed information to WikiLeaks in an attempt to influence the U.S. presidential election, Stone called that idea a "great fiction." The director, currently promoting his biopic of Edward Snowden, said the intelligence experts he has spoken with indicated that the DNC hack was "probably an inside job." He went on to specify that he believed the hack was perpetrated by Democrats within the committee. The revelations from the hack led directly to the resignation of DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz and other high-level officials.

(12,448 posts)Remember his "JFK"? He didn't miss a single whacko conspiracy theory.
His next movie will probably be about the "stolen" 2016 election, with Trump as the downtrodden hero who should have been president.

(3,739 posts)watched his ridiculous conspiracy-theory stew called JFK. I watched Tom Hanks new movie "Sully" at the local theater today and saw previews for Stone's new movie "Snowden". I think Oliver is looking for some free publicity so he can hawk his new movie. Sit down and STFU Mr. Stone.

(53,952 posts)He and his disciples seem to be forgetting their own, usual, battle cry of "Cui Bono?" How the fuck would the DNC benefit from such a hack? Is it possible? Of course, it is! Just as it is possible a Russian agency/directive was responsible, which actually makes more sense given recent events, comments, and situations involving the Republican candidate and the leader of Russia.
Disturbed.
