Mayor Bloomberg Terror Threat Briefing Only Covered Live By WCBS and WNBC

With the ten-year anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on Sunday, there’s word of a credible, but unconfirmed threat that authorities were taking seriously. The threat, to coincide with this weekend’s memorial services, potentially involves New York and/or Washington.  

Moments before President Obama’s jobs address to Congress, came word of the threat. By 8:30 p.m., it was announced that Mayor Bloomberg would give a briefing. Just after 9:40 p.m., he spoke about the threat at One Police Plaza in Lower Manhattan. Bloomberg was flanked by Police Commissioner Ray Kelly and the FBI New York chief Janet Fedarcyk.
