After the UA debacle last week, I don't think any airlines in their right mind would want to be perceived as the evil corporation. The biggest problem I have with the recent string of CBC articles is that instead of taking the opportunities to educate the public about airfares and risks of buying lowest fares and not selecting seats early during the OLCI process, they took the path of generating clicks by employing the 'us against them' theme.
