TSA investigator has butterfingers
Loose lips sink ships, right?A TSA that has been reactive since the beginning of December – thanks to leaks of both its operating manual and a sensitive security memo – is now sporting another black eye. It seems that one of the investigators who delivered a subpoena to the home of travel blogger Steven Frischling couldn't keep track of his notebook. According to a post by blogger Mary Kirby on Flightglobal.com, this federal employee accidentally left his notebook in a public place.
Is it any wonder the TSA is plagued with leaks?
The TSA didn't respond to Kirby's request for comment, and she cites an anonymous source as providing her the info, so there's obviously more waiting to be told.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for the props. I understand your scepticism. All I can do is try to assure you that one of the two agents' notebooks was indeed found on a street. I'm sure you can understand why I cannot divulge material content from the notebook.
The TSA has not responded to my requests for comment. That means they have not responded to confirm or DENY the report. If they confirm the report, it would likely be yet another PR nightmare. If they deny it, and evidence proves otherwise, they would be seen as liars.
