Its not the "slam dunk" I hoped for. The blogger (she claims she's
famous but I don't recall her name) did not state whether the the
female screener used a pronated or supinated hand (or palm or fingers
for that matter) to touch her in [objectionable] areas during the
patdown.

The blogger also claims there is a new body search policy ("... Here
is why I was sexually assaulted. She never told me the new body search
policy"). I recall a male screener who touched my private area - with
the back of his hand - years ago during the process. I don't believe
its a new process.

I believe the blogger is simply a monger trying to get some
media/attention. Its too bad she is wasting time that could be better
spent on folks who might have been assaulted.
