I clicked on the link above, it was infected as h3ll.

One of those alerts that take over your browser and wants you to call a number.

The link worked fine for me with no issues. Perhaps you should run a scan for malware that you might have picked up somewhere else.

I'm on a PC using FireFox if that matters.

As soon as I clicked on the link NAV and Malwarebytes both alerted me. I had to kill the browser in Task Manager then open without allowing it to open to last page.
 
It's a legitimate website for WKRN-ABC in Nashville. If you're getting alerts, I suspect you're infected by something else entirely.

I am on a desktop computer using FireFox as my browser as well. My security software is ESET Nod32. I even tried the link using IE and then Chrome, again with no issues or alerts. It appears that you have picked up something somewhere else. I'd run a virus and malware scan if I were you.
 
At first I was like "What possible injuries could be sustained from sliding off a taxiway to be so bad to require ongoing medical treatment?"

And then I remembered it's Southwest and the SIC was probably suppressing the urge to call out "rotate."

It clearly came from clicking on the link.

Is that a Fox station? It came from Russia.

Thats weird. How would it be attacking some, but not others, who are running the same security software?
 
No problems for me: Desktop with Windows 7 Home Premium, AT&T Internet service, current version of Firefox and up-to-date Norton protection.

Plain vanilla tastes OK in Florida.

Could be a CDN (content delivery server). Kinda like a radio repeater. Depending on the viewers location for time to live issues some content providers will host multiple servers around the world so that viewers at different parts of the world will see the same content served from local servers.

Could be that all those who are experiencing the virus alert are all going to the same CDN that has been hacked.
