Bolding mine: Because the TSO said it is

As to having a witness present during a private screening, the answer is yes and hubby and/or wife should have stated just that. Also, it does appear from the article that hubby and wife are somewhat seasoned travelers so my question is why did wifey ask after the fact/the gloves "beeped" if the TSO had changed their gloves prior to the opt-out patdown? It is sop for me to ask the TSO to change their gloves if I don't see them change their gloves in front of me prior to my secondary shoe swab.
