Overview
- Wales ended his appearance on Germany's 'Jung & Naiv' in under a minute after the first question about whether he is founder or co‑founder.
- He called the query "the dumbest question in the world," said the issue was irrelevant, and told the host not to ask "dumb questions" before leaving.
- The show's host, Tilo Jung, labeled it the channel's shortest interview and noted the video ends after the initial exchange.
- Wikipedia's entry continues to list both Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger as co‑founders of the encyclopedia launched in 2001.
- After the clip circulated, Sanger reposted it on X and said he was ready to "bury the hatchet," signaling a conciliatory tone.
