From a post on RAW STORY:
The creators of Australian Internet hit "Rap News" on Wednesday said they were still "pinching themselves" after controversial and reclusive WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange appeared in a cameo role.

University researcher Giordano Nanni and English teacher Hugo Farrant, whose political satire set to hip hop has achieved cult status on YouTube, said Assange contacted them and invited them to London to film the six-minute skit.

"Rap News" episode five, titled "News World Order: War on Journalism" was made in October, ahead of Assange's leak of almost 400,000 secret logs from the Iraq War, and deals with the implications of the release.
