First of all, I wonder how anybody could consider this "terrific news"
- it actually would be terrible news.

First, what is the "breakers"? Does that mean sold for scrap?

Yes, that's what it means.

And secondly, does anyone know anything about this? I have been googling,
and can't find anything.

It's a rumor spread by somebody who was told about it by an anonymous
"former crew member". This is just one of dozens of rumors which have
been around during the last months.
