From Wired’s Threat Level:
Transportation Security Administration officials and JetBlue Airways are paying $240,000 to settle a discrimination lawsuit against a District of Columbia man who, as a condition of boarding a domestic flight, was forced to cover his shirt that displayed Arabic writing.
Guy just had to cover his shirt and sit at the back of the plane (unlike the many Arabs who have been denied boarding passes and/or booted from flights) and he scored $240k? KA-CHING!!
