Okay, it's an ABC radio news broadcast.
I listened to the 7:00 AM national news broadcast & this time no mention of the LAX incident.
I am positive of what I heard on the 6:00 AM broadcast - I was driving & wide awake.
I was listening to ABC radio in the NYC area pretty consistently from 5:30 to 7:30 AM. I didn't hear it. Like a lot of posters on this thread, I too have suspicions that any story of a threat would be downplayed, or ignored.
So was I, and I heard the same report.
I heard it on ABC radio news at 7:00am est, and I was awake and driving. It said the pilot reported it to the tower while he could still see the rocket trail ahead of him. They reported the FBI saying it was probably a flare or bottle rocket. I, too said "At 6,000 feet???"! The description implied that the pilot saw the 'rocket' early enough to be able to make the radio call while it was still in site, so I was thinking he saw it coming up at him too...
I also heard it on an ABC news station, but can't remember if it was at 6 or 6:00 (too lazy to open my eyes and look at a clock!)
