Their registrar is Network Solutions. The last update to "craigslist.org" there was at 2014-11-24T03:26:40Z, so something did happen to the records at Network Solutions recently.
Network Solutions is the worst registrar ever.
Never even search for your domain availability there, they used to temporarily squat it "for your convenience" and hold it for two weeks. We once got hit by that pretty bad.

Yeah - I'm surprised they are still in business, really. But then, I'm equally surprised that godaddy are.
Network Solutions has had a business trajectory like Myspace. Verisign bought Network Solutions in 2000 for $21 billion. Then it was sold to Pivotal Private Equity. Then it was sold to General Atlantic. Then in 2011 it was sold to Web.com, a marketing company in Jacksonville, FL for about $850 million.
Not a good history there.

I'm Google's DNS (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4) and can't load images on Craigslist right now, after flushing my DNS.
Google Public DNS allows anyone to flush its caches (https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/cache). I've gone ahead and flushed "images.craigslist.org" which may help.
Oh, wow, that'll come in handy, thanks.

Ah strange, I noticed cl was down earlier - I figured it was a fluke and/or something wrong with my own internet.

Not correct. Registrar wasn't hacked their account at the particular registrar was compromised.
