I find it more interesting that the media coverage has been, predictably, completely one sided and sensationalistic going so far as to strongly imply 'suspects.' It's a great reminder of how, in the past, we slipped into 2 red scares and it seems we just barely dodged a third in the present.

Perhaps ironically we can attribute this to the internet. It is a great device for misinformation and FUD, but at the same time it also allows people to openly point out poor logic, unsupported conclusions, or even false facts. This diversity of view probably helps any singular view from taking as hold as strongly as it has in times past -- for better (red scare) and for worse (climate change).
