Glenn Beck Vows to Boycott American Airlines

Conservative talk show host Glenn Beck says he was treated rudely on an American Airlines flight and will never fly on the carrier again.

Fort Worth-based American apologized and said it's looking into the incident.

Beck said on his radio show Tuesday that a flight attendant on a New York-to-Dallas/Fort Worth plane treated him "as a subhuman." Beck said the man "fawned over the other passengers" but "barked" at him and slammed a can of soda down in front of him.

Beck, who lives in Westlake, implied that the flight attendant singled him out because of his political views. He wondered whether American even wanted conservatives on its planes.
