American to charge for FIRST checked bag.

I don't think the public wants them to fail. They just don't want them to succeed by being deceptive.

And I think it's perfectly logical perception to look at "Hey, our tickets are $10 less than our competitor's ... but we charge you $15 to check a bag" ... as an attempt at deception.

Meh, maybe it'll teach a few rubes a lesson to finally see it in those terms.
