Woof:

Once the plane landed, the flight attendants offered the woman and her daughter 5,000 free airline miles and an apology.

People who serve alcohol need to watch what they serve. At bars if you over serve and that person is drunk by themselves need to ask who is driving they have responsibility. Airlines need courses in alcohol management.

They’re just quoting the lawsuit.

Delta is not getting good PR lately… the hold on the tarmac and now this. These are SERIOUS issues that reflect a complete lack of training and/or incompetence that leads to actual harm. Ed has got to go!

Is there a lawsuit? Every link just points to another Murdoch-owned publication without a single link or citation to an actual lawsuit. The described conduct is reprehensible, I'd just like some source outside the Murdoch Cinematic (Political Agenda) Universe.

It's filed by a lawyer. Should we check the facts first?

Because the Soros funded media is any better.

Have any of the bloggers picked this up yet?

If we accept that there is a lawsuit, at the very least the article should provide a link to some online record of it. Not doing so is shoddy journalism.

Fox is directly owned by the guy. Can you please quote what media Soros owns or you just reply that based on your Q-anon Facebook feed?

Or, these days, "journalism".

It's hard to find "news" that's not mostly designed just to get you to click on it, or that supports an ongoing narrative of the publication.

"another male passenger volunteered to switch seats with the teen girl and sat between the intoxicated man and her mother for the rest of the flight. "

So why would Delta have to pay $2 million? Even if they didn't help, SOMEONE did.

Because this was after the sexual assault. Too late to prevent the problem. Delta heads should roll over this.

Please tell us which media you feel is equally as bad as Fox News, and we can go to multiple fact checking sites and see how they compare.

Is Delta responsible for all (self reported, alleged) sexual assaults? Wouldn't you have to prove the assault, first?
