The reporter has GOT to do a bit more research - what was up with “that person” who she was pointing to? Somebody on that flight must have some idea.
Well now, if the reporter would have mentioned the color, size, sex or sexual appearance of or ANY other indicators as to the race, nationality, religious preference, creed, or referred to the possible voting block, culture or any thing that would provided any other identifying information it would have a violation of the.....whatevers right to.....whatever. (sigh)
And, by the way, as your Mommy told you, pointing is rude...
Was she maybe pointing to an empty chair...or a chair everybody else *thought* empty?
