Just one example; the idiot who claims he saw all this, who Airtran has proved wasn't even on the plane, now admits they weren't wearing Muslim clothing at all!!!! And he has no way to know they were Muslims!

http://www.khou.com/news/local/AirTran-e-mail-stirs-up-Internet-firestorm-78474802.html

In his original story, he was the big hero, virtually breaking up a hijacking in progress.

It's all BS! It was all one big attempt by this idiot at selfagrandizement.

Um ... that's not what I asked for. You haven't seen me defending the author of the original email. What I was hoping to see from you were links or proof or names or something to confirm that tv and radio stations in Houston had interviewed many passengers on the flight who deny that anything suspicious happened.

Honestly, I would be able to at link to the hosts or the call letters of the stations if it was me making the claim, and I'd probably even go to the trouble to call them or email them to get the specific names. TV and radio stations DO keep program logs, you know! Hosts generally ARE able to tell you who they invterviewed last month!

For someone who is supposed to have 30+ years of journalism and abhors people who exaggerate, this QUOTE from YOUR link shows it is YOU who are exaggerating:

Petruna stands by his statements, with the exception of his description of the men’s attire. He also said he never witnessed the Muslims watching porn, as he said in the e-mail.

You clearly called him a liar of all sorts, yet if these 2 points are inaccurate (and I also wonder why he is saying this now), yet still insists the others are correct, He still sounds half way credible since two more persons have come forward.
