Miles Morgan is scum. Period. He hides behind the supposed respect of being a senior pilot for United Airlines. But in the shadows, he’s a hypocrite and a thief, stealing the images of hardworking photographers and throwing them on microstock sites for pennies (see here for more on that). What can YOU do to rearrange the priorities of this collection of sewage and garbage? Write or email to his employer and let them know what YOU think of this fraud’s behavior. Here’s a sample letter you can use. Email it directly to United’s CEO. Airline captains must adhere to a certain standard of behavior, and that doesn’t include being a thieving terrorist who wages war against professional photographers:
Dear Glenn Tilton,
As a frequent flier and a past United Airlines customer, I am writing to you to complain about the objectionable, immoral behavior of one of your employees. The employee in question is one Captain Miles Morgan, a senior pilot who resides in Portland, OR.
In his spare time, he claims to enjoy photography as a hobby. Or so he says. In reality, the entire hobby is a recognition farming operation designed to bill Miles as a talented outdoor photographer. In the process, he has stolen the compositions of several different outdoor photographers and claimed credit for them (copyright violation). He has also taken these stolen images and sold them on microstock photography sites for pennies on the dollar, defrauding the rightful owners of the intellectual property rights they are rightfully entitled to. Mr. Miles Morgan has taken great delight & pride in his actions, and has shown no remorse for these despicable acts that can only be described as acts of financial terrorism against professional photographers. He seems to believe this is a big game, and acts as if he does not care that the careers of photographers are hurt by his immoral, fraudulent acts.
As a senior United Airlines employee, his actions sully the reputation of United Airlines and its workforce. I demand that he be reprimanded for his actions, on pain of losing his position at United Airlines. Until Captain Miles Morgan is reprimanded for his actions against the professional photography industry, and issues an apology to that effect, I will not be flying via United Airlines, and I will recommend that everyone I know, including friends, family, and acquaintances, boycott United Airlines. I hope you take this letter seriously and act against Captain Miles Morgan immediately.
Sincerely, a past customer and frequent flier.
Please feel free to take this email and modify it or send it as is. United Airlines will act if enough emails are received. Help put a stop to the immoral thefts conducted by the scum Miles Morgan. Help stop his remorseless terrorism against the photography industry.
In addition, as part of our personal email to United Airlines, Loserphotographers.com will demand that United Airlines take action against Miles Morgan, or suffer a website and blog calling for a widespread boycott of the airline. Will the loss of millions in revenue be worth retaining the FRAUD and SCUM Miles Morgan?
I REFUSE TO FLY UNITED AIRLINES KNOWING THIS. WHEN I GET ON A PLANE I WANT TO FEEL LIKE THE PERSON IN CONTROL IS HONEST, GENUINE, POLISHED, SKILLED, MATURE...BEST OF THE BEST.
ReplyDeleteI DO-NOT GET THE FEELING MR MORGAN IS ANY OF THESE THINGS. HE IS CLEARLY NOT THE BEST OF THE BEST...NOT EVEN CLOSE.
