SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

The Transportation Security Administration has rejected the CNN story that said less than 1 percent of the nation's daily flights carry armed federal air marshals.

A spokesman for the TSA confirmed the investigation, CNN reported.

TSA Spokesman Christopher White said a TSA investigator is looking into the "possible unauthorized release of sensitive and classified information to the news media by covered parties."

"As part of this ongoing investigation, several individuals, both current and former employees, have been contacted as is typical in any investigation", he said.

Its story that aired in March on "Anderson Cooper 360" was based on more than a dozen current and former air marshals, pilots and federal law enforcement officials, the network said.
