The Bill of Rights consists of more than just the 4th Amendment.
The TSO was wrong (no surprise there), all rights apply in airports except as specifically superceded by regulation or deemed inapplicable by a court. In practice, however, the TSA continues to ignore the protections granted by the Bill of Rights. There's a difference between non-existence and non-compliance.
