If it truly lost pressure, "became hot" is not what would happen...
The article didn't say anything about a pressure loss, which, if there wasn't, O2 masks would not deploy. It specifically said there was an air conditioning problem, which would have caused the loss of air and it would have got hot. I'm not sure but I believe the checklist calls for a precautionary descent as well.
I remember riding an NWA CRJ200 from MEM to FSM one time that had no APU. The scheduled plane broke and this was all they had and they had a ground unit at FSM. The flight lasted a bit over an hour and they just kept passing out bottled water and damp washrags the entire time. Fairly cloudy so it wasn't that bad but it was definitely hot. LOL
WITS?

Worse yet, of all horrors, the Inflight Entertainment failed, exacerbating the A/C.....
