Daily Telegraph website hacked

Anyone in need of some light entertainment should have a look at the My Telegraph website run -- though evidently forgotten -- by, er, the Daily Telegraph.
The website features a number of "clubs", one of them being 'Technology', which I thought I'd dip into for a little enlightenment (should've stayed here with MSE, I know.)
The Telegraph Technology Club's most recent posts are a spammer's promotion of a wedding dress company (posted 5 weeks ago) and another spammer's promotion of a mobile phone sales company (posted several hours ago.)
Most hilarious of all is that the site seems to have been hacked 9 hours ago and someone has created a new 'My Telegraph' club for the purposes of advertising something called wholesales.net.
This amazing new club features on the righthand side of the My Telegraph page amongst all the other impressive community clubs which the newspaper is running (i.e., Technology/Wedding Dresses) and even says how many members there are -- 2 -- and discussions (none) are being conducted.

Yep, Finger on the pulse of cutting edge technology
I was really impressed with the "Does London need an new airport?"
Right after they employ a few more English teachers I would have thought.
