Cable network allows some of the RF spectrum to return for the upstream of 
cable modems. So the TV might of been connected to the cable system, and 
when on it was generating noise that was taking out the "upstream" from 
customers moderms to the CMTS.

I would imagine the story hypes it a bit, and only people on a single node 
were bumped offline. Not the entire community. Not unless it was some 
kinda bug that turned into a DDoS or something?
