Too fat to fly

The blog post i found to be interesting was from popeater.com (http://www.popeater.com/2010/02/14/kevin-smith-southwest-twitter/). I picked this one because I thought it was really interesting, especially because of the circumstances. The man who was "too fat to fly" had already been seated and ready to go when the Southwest Airlines pilot decided to kick him off because he was a "safety risk". If he was a safety risk, they should have decided that before he had gotten onto the plane. Also, he was able to get onto another plane after that, so he could not have been that big of a safety risk. I thought this was an effective article because it was short, to the point, funny, and used other sources. The source that was used was Twitter. Actually "tweets" were used in this article. For example, the man who was too fat's tweets that were directed to Southwest Airlines were used, and also their responses back to him. I also think it it funny that people are dealing with their problems towards people through a very public online site!
