The Daily Tube review
The big news in Wiki-world recently was a new tool that revealed the locations where specific edits to Wikipedia articles have been made. Hackers have made updates such as the BBC changing a certain someone's middle name of "Walker" to "Wanker," the CIA altering presidential bios, Exxon cleaning themselves up and Fox News putting a very negative spin on Keith Olbermann's page. Former hacker-turned-Wired.com editor Kevin Poulsen joins Keith as he fights back and details uglier examples, like Dow Chemicals whitewashing the words "Agent Orange" from its history.
