I'm sure there is a reason for it but can they not be a little bit more specific?

This message was pulled from a ATC communications system ordering the stop. These are terse direct communications for professionals who don't need or have time to read the story of what's going on. The news, not having any initial sources besides this is just reporting it, at the time they had no more information.
Like if you're ordering a pizza they don't need the story of your day, why you chose pepperoni, or what movie you plan to watch. Somebody else might be interested, but not the pizza guy.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
It seems the ATC radio system went down across the country
