The Hollywood Reporter has been sued by a freelance production accountant who claims that her career and reputation have been damaged by a story wrongly linking her to last year’s Sony cyberattack. Nicole Basile’s suit claims that in a story headlined “Sony Hack: Studio Security Points to Inside Job” incorrectly characterized her as an insider involved in the devastating hacking that paralyzed operations at the studio for weeks. The suit filed on Friday in U.S. District Court in Chicago targets THR’s parent company Prometheus Global Media and also names the authors, THR staffers Gregg Kilday and Tatiana Siegel.
