    Emails and other records obtained by The New York Times — and which were stolen from Sony by hackers — showed how the movie industry, through a nonprofit group it funded, had hired the former attorney general from Mississippi, whom Mr. Hood used to work for, to put pressure on Mr. Hood to go after the company (Google).

    The Sony emails also showed how the major movie studios, working through the Motion Picture Association of America, had created what they called Project Goliath, a carefully orchestrated lobbying campaign to press state attorneys general not only to question Google, but to subpoena and perhaps sue the company.
