Via Reuters.

Eight U.S. attorneys general on Monday demanded that MySpace hand over to authorities the names and addresses of thousands of convicted sex offenders they say are using the social networking Web site to contact children.

Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal along with his counterparts in seven other states made the demand in a letter to the unit of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.

He said that he learned of the large number of sex offenders on the site as a result of a company investigation, but did not make clear his source.
