Air America Sent White Powder Package...
The New York Post reports that three packages containing white powder were found yesterday in the mail at Air America headquarters -- one of which was addressed to Al Franken. The white powdery substance in the package turned out to be harmless.
The tactic, obviously meant to evoke the anthrax-mail scare of 2001, has suddenly become a popular way of sending a poisonous message: Yesterday, a man named Chad Conrad Castagana was charged after mailing letters with white powder to people like Nancy Pelosi, David Letterman and Jon Stewart. Earlier this month, Chuck Schumer received white powder in the mail, and in September, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann received white powder at his home address.
