Senate Hearing on Cybersecurity and Homegrown Threats

Counterterrorism officials Matthew Olson and Janet Napolitano testify regarding the primary threats to the U.S., identifying Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula and cyber attacks as top priorities. The FBI discusses the creation of "cyber task forces" to combat groups like Anonymous and LulzSec. The hosts mock the bureaucratic language and the focus on distant threats over domestic issues.
