Default American Connection?? Chatauqua??

On the way homr from work this morning (United OCC) Chicago Public Radio was reporting (or Bemoaning) that American is increasing their service out of ORD and are going with CHQ as the Airline of choice for the new expansion under the guise of "AMERICAN CONNECTION" Is this fact?? And,
If so what is the impact to American Eagle?? United just added service TO STL- Lambert and American is closing it down. Is this some sort of Mumbly peg game?? The ORD and Chicago airports commission are all in a "Tizzy" because there'll be fewer passengers after the AMR Expansion to Gouge and less in Landing fees because of lesser Weights. I'm not really SURE they have an Argument and they're getting what they Deserve in my opinion in trying to get UAL and AMR to pay increased landing fees so they might build another TERMINAL for LCC airlines. What?? Did they think UAL and AMR were just going to go along with that Idea or what?? Chicago airports has dened in the past revamping the E and F Concourses for egional jet bridges because they don't want to restrict mainline equipment. Gates B22-29 were built for UAX work before AWSC departed UAX. I seriously DOUBT any UAX carrier will ever use those gates or that Terminal extension again. This is going to get Interesting to say the least.
