Northwest Pulls In-Flight Mag Featuring Suspended NBA Star

  • December 21, 2006
Northwest Airlines pulled the December issue of its in-flight magazine, which featured Denver Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony, who drew a 15-game suspension this week for his part in Saturday's post-game brawl between the Nuggets and New York Knicks.

"Northwest does not want to appear to condone in any way the behavior of some of the players during Saturday's game, including Mr. Anthony, by continuing to offer the current edition of WorldTraveler," the airline said in a statement.

The January issue of the free magazine was being rolled out early as a replacement, the airline said.
