American Airlines is disputing Lena Dunhams claims that she overheard two female airline employees having a transphobic talk at the airport on Wednesday, saying the time stamps of her claims dont add up.
A spokesperson for the airline told TheWrap that they are unable to substantiate the allegations made by the creator and star of HBOs Girls. Dunham tweeted around 3 a.m. ET, said the airline spokesperson, when Americans last departure/arrival at JFK was around 1:45 a.m. ET.
Additionally, a video that Dunham posted around the same time showed that the actress was flying on Delta Air Lines, which according to the spokesperson, doesnt operate out of Terminal 8, whereas American Airlines does. The two are not connected, argued the spokesperson. You can see a map of the terminals here.

Yes, that’s where we are at. You can’t have a private conservation anymore, if you aren’t endorsing liberal viewpoints in said conversation.
If a liberal crusading Hollywood idiot overhears said conversation, then you will be brought up on charges of violating political correctness. That’s the direction we are going.
Yep!
Lena Dunham - Driving Men Into Homosxualism Since 1986
Would it hurt to give a brotha a little warning!?
It’s not believable. People know not to say something politically incorrect in the workplace these days, especially in such a public place as an airport.
And who has ever been so close to a couple of airline employees to hear them chat about what’s on their minds, let alone long enough to hear a thread of conversation.
I think because of this, some airlines should deny service to Lena Dunham. She can always take Greyhound or Megabus.
> Is this subject now off limits even in private conversation? <
If you are a Social Justice Warrior or a Stalinist (same thing) nothing is off limits. Everyone must be PC in their actions, in their conversations, and - yes - even in their thoughts.
To do otherwise brands you as a “racist” or a “hater”. Stalin used the term “wrecker” - maybe that will eventually catch on with the PC crowd.
You mean a corporation has grown a backbone instead of doing a knee jerk reaction of firing a bunch of employees having nothing to do with whatever incident and herding the remaining into political indoctrination I mean sensitivity training?
According to the PC culture of the Left, anything they don't like or like talking about, is off limits to everyone but themselves.
Remember, the Left controls our speech. Our first amendment rights are not in play when it comes to micro-aggressed liberals. Their rules apply.
Attention when*re is her main job!
Backbone is replying with a slander lawsuit seeking millions in damages for her false claims.
To me, this more seems like American Airlines quietly pushing her to attack Delta.
A number of years ago when I was on a construction site, there were these two electricians who did cable terminations in junction boxes. They were a good team, got the work done. One man, one woman. One day the woman comes in wearing a Texas A&M t-shirt. The man said “ Nice t-shirt” - his kids went to A&M. Another woman walking by heard that, and filed a sexual harassment complaint, since he was sooo obviously hitting on his co-worker, despite her denials of such. Knee jerk reaction, he got fired. His co-worker quit in disgust soon after. I lost two good electricians that week.
“Overheard.” She was eavesdropping on a private conversation. Or, she made the whole thing up.
Eye Bleach STAT!!!!!
They love these stories about all the bigotry and racism they are subjected to from anonymous bystanders. Like the black journalists who thinks white women are trying to run him off the sidewalk.
We gotta know...
Lena Dunhams a control freak totalitarian. Eff her...
She's a female version of Micheal Moore. Sorry Lena - we still have a First Amendment in spite of Hollywood jerks like YOU...
Lena WHO? Doesn’t exist in my world. Sympathy to you if she exists in yours.
Actually, I’ve been referring to her as the Hu-manatee for years. . .
