The more notorious Julian Assange becomes, the more fun Bill Hader seems to have with the character. He interrupted a message from Mark Zuckerberg on last night’s Saturday Night Live in order to demonstrate why he should be Time ‘s Person of the Year. “Thanks to WikiLeaks, you can see how corrupt governments operate in the shadows,” he said between muahahas. “Thanks to Facebook, you can figure out which Sex and the City character you are.”
Enlarge Stockholm, Sweden — Enjoying the occasional Steve Jobs email that trickles onto the Internet? Prepare for the deluge. Undaunted by their current travails, WikiLeaks has released 140,000 emails written by Apple’s enigmatic leader. While Scoopertino is only beginning to dig into this treasure trove, a richer picture of Steve Jobs is already beginning to emerge. Overall, the emails reinforce the image of Steve as a man of few words. A cursory review of this massive email dump reveals that 88% of his messages contain three or fewer words, with 84% of those offering only one: “No.”
LONDON ( The Borowitz Report ) -- Moments after being released on bail, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange was already making plans for his next venture, a social network for diplomats called Twofacebook™. Mr. Assange said he came up with the idea for the new site while combing through hundreds of thousands of pages of WikiLeaks documents: "I realized that diplomats didn't have a way to reconnect with old colleagues so they could lie to them." Saying that he hopes to build the site into a "portal of deceit," Mr. Assange said, "this will be a must-visit destination on the Internet for sworn enemies to friend each other." The WikiLeaks founder said that Twofacebook™ would also enable members of the diplomatic community to share information about music, movies and TV shows "that they say they like but actually detest."
