I didn't mean this story in particular, I meant a general story about an airline or TSA allegedly mishandling a situation with a mother who is breastfeeding or using a breast pump.

5 seconds on Google reveals something from 2013:

Several other news results that I didn't bother to click on.

Sometimes the airline is legitimately wrong. Sometimes the passenger is making a mistake or pulling a DYKWIA. Always the media will blow it entirely out of proportion to draw in ratings and clicks.
