What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe Hill is running an analysis tonight titled Three signs that America is on the run.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt argues that three events show how vulnerable bases and infrastructure can be to remote attacks.

Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterThree signs, Hank! Three! Somewhere out there, three things happened, and they are LOOKING at us!

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorLooking at us. The summary doesn't say what the three events are, so I can't tell you that either.

Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterNo names, no places, nothing! That's how you know it's serious!

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThat's how you know it's a short summary.

Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterThe coldest case on this desk, and I have been awake for nineteen hours, eating a gas station hot dog.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe one confirmed fact is that it's analysis, an opinion about challenges facing the country. So the only thing on the run is the headline.
