#2Is this just re-reporting a past event? They even include a clip of Jon Stewart on the Daily Show talking about this specific event in the past. Is there any new information here, or is this just blogspam from a news channel in an actual TV news segment?

#3So the agency responsible for investigating claims regarding workplace health and safety matters, under the OSHA organizational umbrella, fired an employee for making claims regarding unethical work policies, which are now under investigation by a different agency, the Office of Special Counsel.
The umpire has reviewed the play: it is not irony. I repeat: it is not irony.

"a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result."
