Glad to see Chris Elliot’s site still has the TSA directive posted.

The subpoenas have now been removed.

However, it will be interesting to read if Frischling and Elliot receive any “special attention” in their next forays through security at any airports!

Re: “Gotta love how hard they intimidate the ‘new press’ …” The goverment tried to do the same with the ‘old press.’ Think Watergate.

Red Herring if you ask me. Gotta love how hard they intimidate the “new press” on these issues, but the TSA’s solution for actual security is to make all of us take off our shoes and throw away our Shampoo.
Another government agency proving that they are just a false sense of security.

…if Wikileaks is still around. Their site currently reads:

To concentrate on raising the funds necessary to keep us alive into 2010, we have very reluctantly suspended all other operations, until Jan 6.

I guess in the future, anyone receiving such information needs to forwarded it to wikileaks first…
