Court: Harvard twins stuck with Facebook agreement
SAN FRANCISCO – A federal appeals court ruled Monday that former Harvard University schoolmates of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg can't undo their settlement over creation of the social networking site.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Monday that Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss were savvy enough to understand what they were agreeing to when they signed the agreement in 2008.
Here's the main thrust that will get them lampooned (I mean, besides the fact that they're East coast all the way, tall, dark and handsome and went to Harvard. Other than that...):
The deal called for a $20 million cash payment and a partial ownership of Facebook.
I mean, come on. This has SNL all over it:
"Waaaaahhhhhh... Twenty million dollars isn't enough!!!"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This one writes itself.
Even the name. I'm sorry, WINKELVOSS?
The writers won't even have to get out of bed for this one, they'll be able to phone this one in.
