I'm pretty sure I would have heard something from at least one of my Road-Runner using sources, who visits CNN hourly. We have a local Akamai cluster installed at our office and haven't noticed any issues, so it wouldn't appear to be a network-wide thing. Perhaps whatever cluster serves your address space has a failing system, and you have that IP cached, so you keep noticing it? If you view the source of one of the pages, you can see the URL at Akamai it's calling - do an nslookup and see if you get multiple IP's returned? I see: $ dig a772.g.akamai.net ;; ANSWER SECTION: a772.g.akamai.net. 11 IN A 207.195.205.23 a772.g.akamai.net. 11 IN A 207.195.205.21 ... So I get multiple IP's in my address space back - see if you can reboot (windows) and force a new DNS query, or force it through Linux in your hosts file or something.
