The TV giant Sinclair Broadcast Group said it was hacked.  According to a press release on Monday, the company said it detected a ransomware attack on Saturday. The hackers encrypted "certain servers and workstations," stole data, and disrupted some of its TV stations, according to the announcement.

Sinclair calls itself "the largest and most diversified television broadcasting company in the country," operating and owning more than 600 U.S. TV channels. The ransomware attack appears to have interfered with several broadcasts across the country on Sunday, as reported by the cybersecurity news site The Record.
