Media organizations are reporting that a call made to Secret Service threatening the life of President Bush on September 11, the day of the terorrist attacks, never happened.

According to CBS News, there was no record of such a call being made. According to the Associated Press, a senior administration official says a record cannot be located.

White House spokesperson Ari Fleischer, who first made claims about the call in response to criticism of Bush for not returning to the capitol sooner, would not comment yesterday.
