Another shot at Roger Cohen. If it's not that expensive to get a hotel room near (insert major airport here), then why don't the airlines put their pilots up in a hotel the night before their trip starts? Yes, I know why the airlines don't do this, but in an ideal world that's what I would have asked Cohen in response to his whole "just get a hotel at Newark" answer.

And what about the Pinnacle president's comments to the father of a Colgan 3407 crash victim? "We fixed it?" The incredible insensitivity and just cold nature of that statement astounds me.

It was a very good show that I think spelled out lots of the issues in plain language to normal people. What I wish they had discussed in a little more detail is how consumer demands have caused the shift the industry has experienced since deregulation.
