| I really dislike the "media" most times, they are a pain in the a$$, scaring folks (like the Swine Fue) etc...they have their uses but I find more often, they abuse the power of the media |

| This is stupid. THe people involved never had any intention of scaring anybody. Yet here we are again having someone resign over their best of intentions. A misunderstanding is simply that which it implies. I am pretty sure the guy didn't wake up that morning thinking of ways he could get fired or have to resign. The sad thing is that everyone who was "frightened" by the incident probably still went to sleep that night without nightmares about falling buildings, while the media had a field day with the story and destroyed good peoples reputations in the process. The media is nothing more than a drama, drama, drama tool anymore. Its more about "analysts" giving their opinion on current events than actual news reporting. |

Now: this might be sick question, but...were the pictures at least good?
And where can we see them...?
Can't guarantee these are THE pictures (actually it's probably just an old stock photo) but according to gawker.com it would look something like this
Or you could just use these....

| The White House official position on Scareforceone does not make much sense to me and smells like a cover story. If Obama, no elected other officials, VIP, or passengers were on the airplane and it was only crew on the airplane; then why was it necessary not to give the general public prior warning of the photo op? |
