Can some one sum up for me why this airplane kerfuffle is news right now? From what I've gathered it sounds like a man was asked to get off a plane, he refused, so they removed him. Sounds fair to me.

In short, United wanted to get a few of their employees on the full plane, but no one wanted to give up their seat. So, United had security/police escorts people off. The doctor, who apparently had to get home to see patients in the morning, refused to get off. So, they beat his ass and dragged him off by force.

And now United is choosing to downplay the incident and make the passenger look like the bad guy.
