Fake news or a mistake by Wikileaks? Most outlets corrected themselves. Nme.com still hasn't.

Spin magazine also posted this and then corrected it afterwards, saying it happened in 2016. There is clearly some confusion with last year's event, I wonder what started that. Did someone post about last year causing a domino effect or is there some backchannel talking about a new event but no official news yet? The event's website is quite confusing since there's no mention of year, so that explains something

Most of the corrections mention it started with a twitter post by Wikileaks on Apr 22:
