Did a quick search. She said the same thing about the AA deal in 2012.
I would not put it past management to plant these stories. Part of union busting tactics and FEAR 101.

Someone commented:
This just in!!!!! Holly Hegeman of Plane Business Banter says American Airlines Pilots should all vote YES to managements last best final offer.
So that's it. I mean she would know right?
She was a receptionist or a speech writer for Bob Crandall. She left AMR in 1997.
Seriously, a receptionist knows more about what work rules for an airline pilot should be than say an, airline pilot?
So my 23.5% pay cut and work rules given up in 2003 to save AA from bankruptcy wasn't enough. So now Ms Hegeman beleives I should give up scope to American Eagle and unlimited code share to Jet Blue, Alaska and Hawaiian Air.
