TYPO3 in german TV

It's amazing how things can be taken out of context. Tonight german TV show Planetopia tries to show that the security issue of TYPO3 from 10th February was used to hack the homepage of Schalke 04. After the security issue was announced back in February the homepage was actually hacked and showed an article reporting the fact that striker Kevin Kuranyi was fired (which wasn't true). Planetopia tries to place this event into last week after the manager and coach of Schalke 04 were fired. Apparently this sells much better in context with the events of last week. Between the lines you can also read that Open source software (and namely TYPO3) is the cause for this (and therefore bad). Unfortunately other aspects of the topic are not considered.

Interesting side note: News and Pictures Fernsehen GmbH & Co. KG, the producer of Planetopia uses TYPO3 as Content-Management-System. If this side was also hacked in the past is unknown ;-).
