(CNN) -- A drop in so-called "chatter" among suspected terrorists is troubling some counterterrorism officials, who noticed a reduction in intercepted communications before the terror attacks of September 11, 2001, government sources said.
Diminished communication prompted the concern because the counterterror experts don't know why suspected terrorists would be talking less. But they noted that similar reductions have happened several other times during the past few years.

Ok, actually I dont think this qualifies as crappy news since it is actually the *lack* of crappy news. I mean cmon, I remember a similar headline on CNN a couple of months ago that said "Rise in chatter worries officials".
