#2FYI: SBNation is the main property of VOX Media that owns The Verge.
Something nasty must've gotten onto their CDN, but it wasn't necessarily from The Verge - since they operate a significant amount of websites - it's just that The Verge was using their parent company's resources.

Not really. I had a few websites that ran on Wordpress and got "infected" because of some vulnerabilities in a plugin. I had to manually remove the malware code - usually it's pretty easy to find - and go through Google website verification https://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en...

#8This is Luke Zimmermann from VOX Media, the parent company of The Verge and SB Nation. We've requested a formal review with Google after going to extreme steps to pull our advertising content to both do a thorough review and error on the side of caution that there wasn't anything malicious being inadvertently served up. At this time we're doing everything we can to get this on Google's radar and get it sorted out. We're continuing to monitor the situation as well and do everything in our power to make sure none of our readers and users are at any risk.

You can submit the site for review in google webmastertools but i think that is only for serps removal. Also AFAIK Chrome takes malware data from google's severs so webmsatertools seems to be the place to go.
