For example: "Transportation Security Administration spokesman Jonathan Allen said travelers should expect the enhanced security measures, such as the scanners, to operate 'just as they would any other day'. " Yet the TSA spokesperson "didn't address" why many of the scanners were roped off.

That struck me as... inconsistent. Perhaps it is I who misread. Or perhaps we're just splitting some hairs. Or perhaps it's Miller time (though don't hold me to the brand).

Back in the day, I wouldn't have gotten away with that "iffy" writing. My editors would have had my head and had me on the phone until presstime.
Sometimes it Coors Light, sometimes it's Bombay Shapphire and tonic. But don't hold me to that either. Cheers!!
