A shirt suggesting journalists be lynched was reportedly allowed on a United flight

United Airlines reportedly allowed a man wearing a T-shirt suggesting that journalists should be lynched fly aboard one of its planes.

  • The incident happened Oct. 11, 2019 on a flight from Los Angeles to Boston.
  • Two passengers reportedly complained to the flight crew about the shirt.
  • The shirt in question had  “Rope. Tree. Journalist. Some Assembly Required.” on the back.
  • One of those passengers was asked to disembark to discuss the issue with a United operations supervisor.
  • The supervisor reportedly said that the airline couldn’t do anything about the shirt and offered to rebook the complaining passenger on different flight.
  • United did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
