WSJ: Background checks for fliers
The Wall St. Journal reports on how the Transportation Security Administration is looking to go deeper on background checks for airline fliers.
The Transportation Security Administration -- which President Bush Thursday proposed transferring to a new homeland-security agency from its current home within the Transportation Department -- is enlisting companies that analyze personal credit-card and insurance records. The aim is to target suspicious travelers when they make a reservation so that by the time they show up at the airport, authorities will be on alert.
