In this case, looks like the latter (retribution from a co-worker who didn't want ATC to look bad). But the dichotomy has always amused me. They need to pick one story and stick to it!
I would rather hear her story than not hear it at all. This
does have a lot to do with AA, being that the majority of air traffic through DFW is AA. Chances are that one of the aircraft in question was owned by AA. I am happy to live in a country where the consumer can hear these "stories" and form an opinion (probably not always an educated one). If officials see fit, an investigation should be started.
