In December 2014, a group known as "Guardians of Peace" hacked into the Sony computer system, resulting in internal company documents being stolen. The fallout from the hack became a significant diplomatic incident in relations between the U.S. and North Korea. It was reported that the stolen documents included an exchange between Amy and producer Scott Rudin in which she asked him what she should say to President Barack Obama at a Hollywood fundraiser. Pascal joked that Obama might like "Django Unchained," "The Butler," or "Think Like a Man," which many people felt was racially insensitive. Amy apologized for her comments, stating, "The content of my emails were insensitive and inappropriate but are not an accurate reflection of who I am." She added that "although this was a private communication that was stolen, I accept full responsibility for what I wrote and apologize to everyone who was offended." The civil rights organization Color of Change created a petition in December 2014 that called for Sony to fire Pascal. The Sony hack also revealed  a gender pay gap at the company, and when Amy was asked about it in an interview after she left Sony, she stated, "People want to work for less money, I'll pay them less money. I don't call them up and go, 'Can I give you some more?' … what women have to do is not work for less money…. People should know what they're worth and say no."
