USA Today Publishes Additional Story on Long Distance Carriers, NSA Cooperation

USA Today has published an additional story following up on its May 11th article asserting that BellSouth, Verizon and AT&T had turned over customer records to the National Security Agency. The paper has revised its description of the program and now says it cannot verify that either BellSouth or Verizon agreed to turn over “bulk” customer records to the NSA. In an accompanying story, USA Today details the work of Congress in examining the NSA database of phone call records.
