What causes flight status to be so laughably wrong.

Seriously. Every once in awhile I get a flight status report that is so incorrect as to be a joke. Tonight, spawn of milepig is flying CHS-ORD. At 7:25 her flight still showed an ontime departure of 5:25 although they had not yet boarded. A few minutes I can see, but at the 2 hour point UA still had a completely bogus status. Why does this happen?
