Would you check this out on CNN.com? When I clicked...
a second-long message popped up and said, "Nothing to be seen here, move along."

Does anyone else get that message?

when I went through yahoo as you describe

notice that the link in yahoo = victory.cnn.com
instead of plain old cnn.com. it automatically redirected to the correct page after a few seconds.

4. It seems to be a forwarding page
you can get the same thing by going to:
http://victory.cnn.com
which is the link that shows up first in the yahoo search. The "Hello World - Nothing to see here, move along" page immediately forwards you to www.cnn.com.
