One very relevant example is in my post which I clearly wrote above.

As for their agenda - "established in 1994 to focus public attention on emerging civil liberties issues and to protect privacy, the First Amendment, and constitutional values."

Anything they write is going to be slanted towards that. This piece certainly is.
And TSA's positions are completely bias free and on the up and up? Please.

So what if they have an agenda? If no one had an agenda, nothing would get done. They're at least up front and honest about what theirs is and aren't obfuscating it. TSA can't say that.

To get anything close to honest information out of TSA, it takes a media report or FOIA request.

And TSA is above that?
