This clip that I showed some time ago illustrates why Time magazine’s choice of Mark Zuckerberg as its Person of the Year is completely appropriate considering its audience.
Although the magazine’s online poll resulted in an easy win for Julian Assange with 382,026 votes (with Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan a distant second with 233,640 votes), to no one’s surprise they ignored their own poll and gave this utterly pointless marketing gimmick title to Mark Zuckerberg, who came in 10th with a measly 18,353 votes.
Over at Saturday Night Live, we get Assange’s reaction.

The comic strip Jesus and Mo have up to now featured just four characters: Jesus and Mohammed and the atheist barmaid as regulars, with cameo appearances by Moses. Our two heroes have now been joined by Joseph Smith.
That conman finds that Jesus and Mo are as gullible as any of their own religious followers.
A truly great lyricist of musical theater has an enjoyable conversation with the host. Colbert’s suggested ending for the song Send in the Clowns is priceless.
