  The newsworthy parts of this:

  1. It was a monkey and not a squirrel.
  2. It took down the entire grid and not just a section of it, because poorly-designed and -maintained grid.

  “unplugged nation” is certainly one way to describe what happened. The monkey very briefly became part of the electricity grid, is another.
