At one time, wasn't that a priority with threats of any kind, particularly intrusive ones?

The content isn't going to change regardless of which news source is used. I looked a few minutes earlier and it wasn't covered by ABC News or CNN.

So the lead speaker says the FBI and Sheriff's office are handling the case with FBI leading. At the end he insists that 2 agencies handling the case and he says it's Secret Service and Sheriff.
