A CNN reporter dashes off a hot story, "airport … in chaos, … stranding, … fable for the information age, … foremost computer security experts flipped open their laptops and reopened the terminal…".

Fortunately, VMyths gets to the truth: one of the suspects named in the article, David Perry clarified the incident: the experts only told Luxembourg airline employees to reboot the network.
