I mean this one, which affected, among others CNN, ABC and The New York Times (resisting snarky comment); some offices on Capitol Hill; Caterpillar Company; and several other multibillion-dollar S&P 500 companies BizzyBlog knows of who have somehow kept the their problem away from public knowledge.

Question 1:

Question 2:
