Julian Assange Joins . . . The Simpsons?

You read that right.

Tonight (2/19) at 8pm (EST) the Simpsons will have their 500th episode.  Making a cameo will be Julian Assange, the controversial founder of Wikileaks.  Assange is currently facing a legal battle over extradition. 

According to a Reuters article, Assange had to record his cameo over the phone from a secret location.   

Details on his role are sketchy, but one commentator said that Assange would be sort of a new Flanders.
