Homeland Security allowed to ravish homeland in name of security.

Homeland Security Secretary used powers given to him by the Real ID Act of 2005 to continue with construction of a wall through protected wildlife areas in Arizona

Yes, that's right! The Real ID Act of 2005 gives this man the power to disregard environmental laws to further this administration's goals, yet The New York Times completely overlooked this fact in its coverage.

Of the stories reviewed, the Associated Press' was the most complete with about 650 words.

The Phoenix Business Journal had the best lead, covering not only the who, what and where, but the why.
