American publisher Little Brown has reportedly decided to circulate President Barack Obama's private text messages after 'cyber hackers' allegedly cracked into his blackberry.

The publisher announced plans to expose the president's messages on June 8, Fox News reported.

Fox News reported that messages, decoded by virtual reality 'terrorist' group Kasper Hauser*, will disclose 'sensitive' data interchanged in presidential communications with Vice President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton amongst others.

The far-right US television network went on to jocularly say that the 'Western Civilization' could be at risk, should Obama's blackberry records be laid bare.

US presidents do not usually possess personal communication gadgets such as cell phones or other hi-tech contact gizmos while in office, and Obama is the first US president who continued to carry his blackberry.

According to Fox News, cracking such personal information would not be seen as a 'breach of national security'.

*Following its initial publication of the report, an update appeared on the Fox News website which reads that "Upon closer inspection, it turns out Kasper Hauser is not a cyber terrorist, but the name of a comedy group."

The new report makes no mention that the article initially published by Fox News was a hoax.
