CBS News- Small Airport Security 1/14 Wed
Dan Rather/ CBS Evening News is advertising a sensational news story about
small airport security, or, as the advertisement implies, the serious lack of it. Typical tag line: "What we found out will surprise you!" Ok...prepare to be surprised...and gutted...and vivisectioned...only as the media knows how... It's supposed to air 1/14/04 according to ads. Did anybody see the coverage of the 'lady pilot' on their Early Show today? There was something that was supposed to surprise us there, but I didn't get to watch it. Dang. RDA |

Literally. Any news person photographing the airport or interviewing pilots or airport personnel should be bodily tackled and their camera and recording equipment smashed. Then we tell them that the airport cannot be photographed or aviation employees interviewed because it might give away security secrets. Hey, if it is good enough the FAA's HQ, then we can do no less for our precious airfields. |

Wait 'til the press finds out that little airplanes don't really need
airports. There are millions of cow pastures across america that a plane can land in and load all sorts of evil. Tom Ridge will be doing body cavity searches on every cow he can find. And you wondered where mad cows come from. Rich |

Never mind any possible collateral damage to persons or property on the ground or to passengers or family in the plane. Of course, if the plane had been shot down, I can see CBS' tag line: "Bush administration orders small plane shot down. Family of four, including husband, wife and two small children murdered by cruel regime. See our full report on this latest outrage at 11." |

How many times have you noticed the media do some eposure story that actually produced some results and action only to witness the same media do another story blasting the actions taken to correct the original problem? I have seen it over and over again but it seems that most people never connect the two.
