Default Low fuel emergency in DFW

(in article ):

I'm not saying that ATC didn't have a problem, but by the same token, it is
also unacceptable for the pilot to continue to his destination after he
declared an emergency to avoid the delays and hassles of diverting to a
closer airport.

He already had an emergency. He had just left DFW and still had the charts
out for it. Maybe landing at a less familiar field without adequate
preparation was too big a risk in his opinion.
