The news here isn’t how long the delays are but that these are the first publicly stated delays due to the staffing. As is usually the case, the uneducated blow it way out of proportion because they don’t understand the bigger picture and how unimportant these delays really are. However, it fits a trend of the shutdown getting progressively worse so the media runs with it and milks it for all it's worth.

I believe it. I commute out of a smaller town. No TSA this morning. Flights canceled. They have some agents coming in from other larger airports to help. Had to get positive space on next flight.

That’s what I said in the first sentence of my post.
