Harvard's student newspaper was apparently hacked to make fun of commencement speaker Mark Zuckerberg
Mark Zuckerberg is giving the commencement address at Harvard on Thursday after famously dropping out 12 years ago to create Facebook.
And it looks like Harvard's student newspaper, The Harvard Crimson, has been hacked to show fake stories trolling Zuckerberg. We noticed the changes to the Crimson's website Thursday afternoon, just minutes before Zuckerberg was slated to give the 2017 commencement address.
Many of the fake stories were quickly taken down, and we've reached out to the Crimson for comment about how this apparent prank happened.
