CNN reports that at least 950 million Android phones are at risk of being hacked by simply receiving a text message.

ABC News writes that hackers gain control of the device by sending a malware infected picture message.

Details of the hacking threat, which is called Stagefright, were published this week by cyber security research firm Zimperium.

CNN Releases Audio Of Phone Conversation Contradicting Fox News Bill O’Reilly’s Oswald/de Mohrenschildt Story


Secular Talk

According to Media Matters, Bill O’Reilly has repeatedly claimed in his books and on Fox News that while he was reporting for a Dallas television station in 1977, he was directly outside the home at the moment that George de Mohrenschildt — an associate of Lee Harvey Oswald — shot himself in Florida.  The police report filed at the time makes no mention of him.

Media Matters also reported that several former colleagues and journalists at the time have disputed O’Reilly’s story.

Adding to the mounting evidence against O’Reilly’s tale are tape recordings of a phone conversation between O’Reilly and a congressional reporter who was interviewing de Mohrenschildt before his death, states Media Matters.

The recording was recently released by CNN on Reliable Sources with Brian Stelter

“On the tapes, O’Reilly can be heard asking the congressional reporter about the details of the suicide, and adding that he is not yet in Florida — a claim that is at odds with O’Reilly’s statements that he was near the home where de Mohrenschildt killed himself.”  Secular Talk takes a look at it.
