TSA Backs Down on Shirtless Boy Story

TSA’s initial statement on the incident said the boy set off the alarm on the metal detector, a point disputed by a man who taped the screening and posted it online. Chaffetz says the airport’s top TSA official admitted the boy didn’t trigger the alarm and the congressman went to bat to get the agency to correct its statement.
“I said, ‘You guys knew that at the beginning. You lied at the beginning,” Chaffetz said Friday.
The TSA’s blog now says that the boy was given a pat down because of bulky clothing and not because metal was detected.
“New information was brought to light that indicated the initial report was incorrect,” the TSA said.
"New information" is the new "getting caught in a lie."
