This might be the most top-heavy title I've ever read, given the economy of words. "Hackers Are Targeting Nuclear Facilities, Say Homeland Security Dept. and F.B.I." would be much more balanced - or am I just off my rocker?

It is sad that the agencies in question no longer enjoy the level of trust by the public they once had.
