Badass: The New York Times and Wikipedia Conspire to Free Taliban Hostage

This is one of the craziest, coolest news stories I've ever read!

A New York Times journalist, David S. Rohde, was kidnapped by Taliban 7 months ago. But the New York Times and Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales did everything they could to keep the story quiet so Rohde would be a less valuable bargaining chip and could escape quicker and more easily. BADASS.
