Interesting that they consider a security breach by the media as more
likely
than a plane being stolen and used in an attack



First, way to go Mr. Allen. Who'd have thought a Mass government official
would have such a clue.

Second, the threat from the media is probably a factor of 1,000,000 greater
than that of terorists.

The same media that has been big-time cheerleaders for the terrorists!!!

For sure.

Although I have been amazed to see, in recent days, some sporadic coverage
of the Iraqi people rising up and fighting the "insurgents" (AKA:
terrorists) in their midst. And even some of the "news magazines" are
starting to admit that maybe, just maybe, Bush has been right about a few
things in the way he's handling the Middle East.

Perhaps there is some hope that the media types will actually start
reporting the news more completely -- although I'm not holding my breath.

"How can you be an "insurgent" in someone else's country? Yet despite the
fact that the wave of terrorism in Iraq is led by an outside terrorist who
is murdering Iraqis, our media still calls his terror campaign an
"insurgency." -- Thomas Sowell, 02/23/2005

reporting the news more completely -- although I'm not holding my breath.


Don't!!

This is the Massachusetts Aeronautical Commission, which is pretty much 100%
aligned with GA since that's all they get to run. Logan Int'l and Hanscom
Field are run by the much-larger Massport, which would be indistinguishable
from a parody of itself.

Of course, Massport would likely agree with MAC's sentiment, since the media
are pretty much their only natural predator. Reporters have gotten a lot
more Massport officials fired than terrorists have.
