The real problem with the alleged Chinese spy balloon
from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy
Are you keeping an eye on the sky now more than ever? If your answer is yes, we get it. In recent weeks, the United States has shot down four unidentified flying objects, calling into question who (or what) is watching us. But here's the thing: so far, only one of the four objects shot down is said to have been a foreign spy instrument, and according to one expert, this ambiguity poses a problem that's potentially big. La Salle University Assistant Professor of Political Science Dr. Mark Thomas served as a special advisor to the Assistant Secretary of the U.S. Army in the early 2000s, and has experience working on national security issues. He weighs in on how much information a spy balloon can actually collect, and where the leak about the balloon might have come from.
