The way to respond to shows like this is to increase security. If we see
news media photographing the airport or interviewing people at the airport,
we should tackle the reporter, throw him or her to the ground, and smash his
camera equipment. Then we should explain that we do not allow the airport or
personnel associated with the airport to be photographed or interviewed
because that would compromise security. They want tough security measures?
Then let's give them tough security measures!

Actually, tackling the media, beating the crap out of them and destroying
their equipment is just a good policy in general

I know you're being facetious, but reading this kind of statement is still
scary.

If you think the TSA and other government agencies are acting heavy-handed
now, imagine what they would be like without the media keeping them honest.

Think "North Korea."

Surely you're not serious!!!

Think "North Korea."

North Korea? Hell, think "Washington D.C." (District of Criminals)

(Remember: The vast majority of criticism is self-serving)

What is the media doing to keep TSA honest? You are not scared nearly
enough.

Now THAT's an idea I like!

They should also be held incommunicado for 30 days after the incident (in
the FBO restrooms) as an added security precaution.

Hey! The congestion at the FBO reading room after a long flight is bad enough
without using it as a holding cell.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."

Hmmmm...that's true! I guess we'll just have to take them in there and
quickly flush them.

This is all I could find on the CBS website:

(CBS) And here's an early look at what we're working on for tomorrow's
broadcast:

There are thousands of general aviation airstrips around the country with
little or no security. How can that be after 9-11? We'll have the story on
Wednesday's CBS Evening News.
