There are a few things about this that seem odd to me. From elsewhere in the comments, the key is encrypted with 79DEBE35, which, if you look it up on your keyserver of choice, belongs to "Verax (Informed Democracy Front)", created on May 20, 2013.
Verax was the name used by Snowden to communicate with Laura Poitras (and perhaps others as well), but the story didn't break until June 5 and his identity wasn't revealed until days later.
So why is Wired encrypting a message with a key using that name that was generated before the name was publicly known in association with Snowden?
EDIT: Disregard the above—the "encrypted with" key is the recipient's key, not the sender/signer. 79DEBE35 may well be Snowden's key (but that's not proven either).
