have continued to washington. the auth are on of the boston globe investigative piece jana winter who was the current globe spotlight fellow. i want to applaud your work and make clear that i thought it was a great report. i just have mixed opinion. i want instinct to be honored by law enforcement, but i don t want them on a fool s errand. do you think we can do both? i would like to think so. i mean, what we know now at this point is obviously there s been a lot of outrage, bipartisan outrage, i would note, which is pretty rare since the story of ours published last weekend and congress was briefed on thursday and ntsb officials said yeah, we ve followed 5,000 u.s. citizens who are not under investigation or suspected of any crime and not on any terrorist watch list and 5,000 since march and they have zero threats. they found nothing. they found no one that merited any follow-up and no suspicious
without their knowing it. even if they have not been suspected of any crime or if they are under investigation at all. the boston globe reporting that this previously undisclosed program known as quiet skies what the heck? this program is generating significant criticism from within the tsa. here with us to discussat is boston globe reporter jana winter who broke the story. we are also rejoined by former inspector general of the intelligence communityrs during the obama years, chuck jmccullough. a wild thing. first of all, jana, great story on this. incredible reporting. quiet skies. it sounds so placid and lovely. but what is this deal? it seems to me that none of this know about it. i ve never heard congress talk about it. does that work? how could we be tracked? here is what we know. we know that thousands of ordinary american to americans who are suspected of no crime and warranty on any watch list
shooter, there were reports from multiple outlets in multiple cities that another shooter was feared to be barricaded inside a building. it appears now that authorities are acting by the greatest of caution. certaining the facilities on post to make sure that there were r. no other active shooters, but at this point we do not have reason to believe that there is another shooter. that is not to say that the post is back to normal by any stretch of the imagination. they are still being asked to shelter in place. they are acting on the side of caution. at this point it appears we have another shooting at fort hood. by way of background, yesterday on my afternoon program, we reported that foxnews.com reporter jana winter had gotten word of a plot, of a man who had been recruited to be in the army and would have begun his basic training on april the
shooter. our pentagon reporter jennifer griffin is live there now with the latest as we have it. jennifer? shepard, we have been talking to sources down at fort hood and they tell us that the shooting took place outside the first medical brigade. there were approximately 20 shots fired and as you reported senior law enforcement officials now tell us that there are at least four dead, 14 wounded total. among the dead is believed to be the shooter according to a spokesman at fort hood who spoke to us not long ago it clear what caused this incident. as you mentioned, jana winter had from her sources that it was some sort of an altercation between soldiers and that that is how the initial shots were fired. there are reports out there. we cannot confirm them at this point in time that the shooter may have taken his own life. it may have been a self-inflicted wound that killed the shooter. all that the fort hood officials will tell us is
that the shooter himself is dead at this point. so, right now still a lockdown. the fort hood web site still says this is not a test to shelter in place, keep your doors closed. it is still an active crime scene, if you will. and the hospitals at fort hood, both the medical center there as well as local medical centers are tending to the wounded. we are told that at least 8 ambulances arrived through the gates of fort hood shortly after the shooting began, shepard. jennifer, as we have both reported throughout the evening, jana winter is reporting that yesterday s report on fox foxnews.com and today s reality at fort hood are not related. i want to read to you what was on foxnews.com exclusively as of yesterday and i quote: the alert whose legitimacy was confirmed by law enforcement officials say that a man identified as booker had told friends of his, quote: intention to commit jihad, unquote. booker who is also known as mohammed abdullah hasan was
