AOL Investigation: No Proof TSA Scanners Are Safe

~

The Transportation Security Administration says that when working properly, X-ray scanners emit an infinitesimal, virtually harmless amount of radiation.

The problem is that the TSA offers no proof that anyone is checking to see if the machines are "working properly."

The TSA ticks off a litany of groups that it says are involved with determining and ensuring the safety of the controversial devices.

However, AOL News has found that those organizations say they have no responsibility for the continuing safety of the alternative to TSA's grope.
