What BBN said about it

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe New York Post reports actress Selma Blair was arrested after she allegedly bit a flight attendant and tried to open a plane door, and one flight attendant was taken to the hospital.
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterA DOOR, Gloria! A door at thirty-five thousand feet!
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterWell, we don't know the altitude, but I am treating it as thirty-five thousand, and the pretzels are on notice!
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe data does not say the plane was airborne. It says allegedly, and that word is carrying this entire story.
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterAllegedly a bite. Allegedly a handle. Allegedly the worst snack service in aviation history.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNothing in the report says anything about snacks, Rosa.
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterThen the snacks are hiding something, and I will find out what.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorWhat we know is one arrest, one hospital trip, and a door that, as far as anyone has said, stayed shut.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorIt is the only party in this story that did its job.
