"Stunning setback"

BP freezes work on relief well and temporary cap for Gulf oil spill
BP froze activity on two key projects Wednesday meant to choke off the flow of oil billowing from its broken well in the Gulf of Mexico after days of moving confidently toward controlling the crisis. The development was a stunning setback after the oil giant finally seemed to be on track following nearly three months of failed attempts to stop the spill, which has sullied beaches from Florida to Texas and decimated the multibillion dollar fishing industry.
No, really, they wrote that. It says "stunning setback. Who else is "stunned" by any of this anymore? Stunning.
