Two possibilities sprung to mind:
1.) Kusari saw an opening and took it, going on a massive killing spree of those she "knows" Schlock doesn't value... which is almost everyone on the planet. It could be that she's not as heartless as Schlock thought, and took the opportunity to stretch his orders to ruin his plans in her own way.
or
2) Riff's plan involved a hostile takeover of HeretiCorp, not an assault. All-out assault was plan B.

OR, the secret service, tipped off by the gang, Stopped Kusari.

I'm gonna guess these headlines involve the iso-scanner. I'll bet Riff and Torg used the info Sasha gave to greater advantage than she would have imagined possible. Because of that, they perhaps had an idea of what to look for or at least where to look, they found out, and leaked info on the iso-scanner. Perhaps that would have been too quick to be feasible though. So maybe not...

Sasha conveniently left out the whole Iso Scanner thing though. If they were found, it would be with no help from Sasha.

We still haven't seen what headlines Schlock is supposed to look at. I think yurak's call is that Torg & Co. leaked the news of the Senator's aide's wife being assassinated. Torg DID say that he needed Izzy sober, and she has planted info in the media before.

And there we have it! Headlines!
Far more headlines than I had expected, but definitely this information flooding will be harder for hC to counter.

Unfortunately, Hereticorps loss of military contracts probably doesn't mean the immediate loss of their Fully Armed and Operational DFA Satellites. Once Schlock stops focusing on Oasis, things are going to get ugly/possibly China involvement too.
