Based upon this episode, looks like the lesson is to let embarrassing things stay for a while before calling attention to them, thus making it harder to revise history.
Y'know... the press usually pulls from a set of "stock" photos when doing a story about the TSA rather than send somebody over to the airport for a fresh shot of some uniformed TS"O"s loitering around the checkpoint. I've seen the same photos repeated in a number of stories. Find another unflattering story of the TSA illustrated by the new photo that has been posted. Shouldn't be too hard! :-p
