This final note today, which may well be the first time Entertainment Weekly has made an appearance on the broadcast.
The 500th episode of “The Simpsons” is coming up — next month, in fact. And EW reports they’re going to have a special guest star. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will make an appearance.
Not so easy to get him, though. The Simpson’s executive producer was apparently just given a number to call, and recorded him from house arrest over in the UK.
