Sony got hacked. Should you care?

Should You Care: Tracy Byrnes and Elizabeth MacDonald tell you if you should care about the Sony Pictures hack, Christian Bale-George Clooney tiff and poor Black Friday sales.

The hits from the hack attack on Sony Pictures Entertainment just keep on coming as more than 47,000 Social Security numbers were released, including those belonging to celebrities — Sylvester Stallone, among them.

While the company says it’s committed to releasing the Seth Rogen-James Franco comedy “The Interview,” about a plot to kill the leader of North Korea, Kim Jong Un, there is no way of knowing what other information may come to light before its opening.

Other celebrities who had their Social Security numbers released include “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” director Judd Apatow and Australian actress Rebel Wilson, according to the WSJ.com.

Rolling Stone cover man Rogen tweeted Thursday that a promotional screening in Denver was going ahead as planned.

Yesterday, an unnamed North Korean official told radio outlet Voice of America that the country was not responsible for the ransacking of Sony’s information technology.

Sony’s bad week got worse Thursday as media outlets combed through years of internal documents to expose some of Hollywood’s free-spending ways.

While Sony has been trying to cut its own overhead with a cost-saving goal of $100 million in 2014, it spent $74,000 to have tigers appear in the movie and paid Rogen and Franco a combined $15,000 to drive themselves to the set, according to reports.

The documents exposed the salaries of Rogen, who got $8.4 million for his work, and Franco, who received $6.5 million, according to Bloomberg.

The wire service also reported that $241 was spent on “a table of weed, coke, pills and panties.”

The bad news just won’t stop, with Sony’s corporate passwords and the credit card details of CEO Michael Lynton also available in the data dump.

Meanwhile, the Japan-based corporate owners of Sony are distancing themselves from the release, according to insiders. The controversial movie stars the handsome Franco as a TV reporter recruited by the CIA to assassinate the North Korean leader.

“The Interview” is due to be released on Christmas Day, but there’s no decision yet on whether the movie will open in Japan.
