I have no idea if the Sun was hacked or what. But this was the first time I have ever seen this on a web page.
Update: Here is the Las Vegas's Sun's explanation:
Overnight and into this morning, Google scared Sun readers from
visiting stories displayed on our homepage, displaying a screen that
warned that the page had been blocked for security reasons. It allowed
readers to ignore the warning, but suggested that would come at the
risk of great peril. Another option for readers was to click on the
button “Get me out of here!”
That was rather unsettling. With that exclamation point, who dared proceed?
But yet, Google’s own supporting information (available to readers
who clicked on the button “Why was this page blocked?”) reported that
in 337 random pages it tested over the past 90 days, it found no
evidence of malicious software. None. Moreover, Google said that our
website was not serving as an intermediary for any viruses. In other
words, we were clean.

Deep down they are probably saying it was a prank by one of the following: Sharon Angle, The Tea Pary, Me, Brian Sandoval, Dina Titus, Conservatives, George Bush, Scott Walker, The Koch Brothers, Dean Heller, Rep. Joe Heck, The LVRJ, Rush Limbaugh, Fox TV, Heidi Harris, People who hate taxes etc.
