[grc] Gunmen Kill Activist During Live Radio Show in Sinaloa, Mexico

[Donna Dibianco]

LOL! The Glass windows I see, when built according to specs are usually double-glazed, double-paned with a sound-lock between (3-5" wedge spacing) . 
Being trained in the cold war, Main studio access was a big deal, a carry-over from WWII, where it was the Control Room Operators' duty to be able to secure the transmission point. 

While the threat level of some militant group, breaking in and taking over the airwaves is still a possibility, it is still our duty, according to the FCC to maintain control.

Let's be realistic... when was the last time you saw a main studio
that didn't have a glass window on at least one of the walls?

A locked door does no good in that situation. Glass is invisible to
all but the very smallest handgun calibers, and even then a nearby
chair eliminates the window.

I see only two ways out of the above situation, a second door, or
openable window, as an escape route, or a short barreled shotgun
strapped under the desk and I HIGHLY do NOT recommend the latter!
