was this the issue that totally confused the denialist – and sent them into a whirlwind of conspiracy ideation.

Your link doesn’t mention the original source and doesn’t give credit to the author, Andy Borowitz, who writes short, satirical pieces for The New Yorker. The original is here:
http://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/scientists-earth-endangered-by-new-strain-of-fact-resistant-humans

An index of his work is available here:

Some of it is exceptionally good.

“Nuuk, Greenland’s capital, soared to 75 degrees (24 Celsius*) Thursday, marking the warmest temperature ever recorded in the Arctic country during June.”

According to DMI the new record is even higher:
“Grønland fik torsdag en ny varmerekord for juni. Den nye rekord lyder på 24,7°C og er sat ved lufthavnen i Nuuk.”

Imagine If the satellite had broken when Arctic sea ice was much higher than normal…

All the usual suspects were out in force:
