Did "South Park" tease an episode featuring Susan Dell and did she rage in response? No, that's not true: The image of Dell appearing with the characters from the TV show is AI-generated and was made by a digital creator. Neither the show nor Dell had posted any messages about such an episode at the time of writing.
The claim appeared in a post by the @WikiLeaksQ (archived here) account on X on Oct. 11, 2026. It read:
Susan Dell is raging about South Park after spotting a post that teases an upcoming episode focused on him. 😂

Susan Dell is the philanthropist wife of Dell Technologies CEO Michael Dell, who is worth an estimated $260 billion, according to Fortune (archived here). She appeared with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office at the White House with her husband on Oct. 7, 2026, and was criticized online for her appearance, according to CNN (archived here).
"South Park" changed its name to "South America" (archived here) as a criticism of Apple and Google after they renamed Lake Ontario to Lake America and the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America.
The post on X showed messages from "South America" and Dell, neither of which are real.
The message from "South America" read:
We've seen the reactions. We've seen the memes. So yeah... Susan Dell is officially getting the South Park treatment. New episode coming soon. Let's just say she's probably not going to be happy with us.

The message from Susan Dell read:
This is absolutely ridiculous. You people have turned me into some running joke and now you're announcing an entire episode about me like I'm supposed to laugh along with it? @SouthPark, take this down and leave me out of your show. There's nothing funny about publicly humiliating someone over and over again.
