CBS is schizo in NY this morning
Edited on Fri Oct-07-05 05:27 AM by annabanana
in it's coverage of the terra alert on the subways.

"In spite of disagreements in regard to the reliability of the most recent terror alert... Security has been stepped up all through the transportation systen this morning"

and then they cut to heads "in the field" standing in front of bag checking stations and guardsmen in full gun-toting, terrorist shooting regalia and talk about "for safety's sake..."

...very odd sensation..
:crazy:

When the mayor says one thing, and Homeland Security says something else... They just don't know who their master is..

3. On the other hand...
...I happen to trust Bloomberg a hell of a lot more than I trust Bush or anyone at DHS, given how poorly it's run.

4. New Yorkers are nervous, can you blame them?
This is a city that's seen terrorism first hand. They're not taking any chances.

Even if many of them think it's all Bushit, there's a significant number of those who think that Bush wouldn't mind sacrificing the lives of a few New York Subway riders to focus the nation on terror again.
