There is a very detailed account (more detail than in the news media) of the events surrounding the recent incident of the woman removed from the Delta flight for breastfeeding her 22-month-old daughter.  She has filed a complaint with the Vermont Civil Rights Commission.

Also there is an exclusive first-person interview with the mother, Emily Gilette.

I understand that media coverage is increasing, with coverage on page 3 of USAToday
http://www.usatoday.com/travel/news/2006-11-16-breastfeeding_x.htm

Ms Gilette will be interviewed by Fox News, and anticipates that the Good Morning America interview will be next week.

There is a Nation-wide Nurse-In scheduled for Tuesday Nov. 21th at 10am. at Delta counters. 

Check at the Lactivism forum at mothering.com for more information about the nurse-in.
