The Daily Show’s Twitter apparently hacked. Looks like it was hacked for political reasons. Screenshots here for posterity. Here’s the account apparently taking credit. Apparently the account was hacked last week, too. (ht Matt)

EDIT: Looks like thee other Viacom accounts got compromised — @ColbertReport, @ComedyCentral and @Spike_TV. Looks coordinated. EDIT 2: Also, the tweets — which are identical on each account — got sent via HootSuite. Is it possible that the accounts are connected? Hm. EDIT 3: Notexactly points out another Viacom account, @Warriors_Den, also got hacked.
