New York Times home page doesn't display correctly

New York Times home appears without any formatting. All text, including links, and all objects (videos, photos, etc.) appear justified left, stacked individually. This means it takes five minutes just to scroll down the page to see the headlines. Have upgraded to Firefox 4, which fixed the problem until the next time the page reloaded. Cleared the cache, checked page style and zoom, all settings are normal and/or recommended. Do not have this problem with any other website or any other page of the NY Times. Only the home page.
