The Daily Mail has a great write-up:

'When my scared child could not do so, two TSOs called for backup saying, "The suspect is not cooperating."
A chilling insight into the TSA workers' mindset, as if we needed one.
When a manager was called, he decided that the distraught Isabella could be checked alongside her mother, and let the family pass through security at last.
So the manager acted "improperly" then if we are to believe the TSA mouthpiece ?

Fox has picked it up too, probably because it affords the opportunity for gratuitous politicking.
