Why is the Rmoney Jeep Plant closing lie NOT going viral?

And meanwhile Sensata is definately closing and moving to China. I hope the President will work to keep this, or in this case make this a front page item. I am really losing faith in the neutered MSM over the past month and especially these items here.

hurricane victims is immoral and should be privatised. I'd have that clip running a lot.
Even though it would be decried as using a tragedy for political gain - complaints, of course, from the GOP who are masters of that.

to report. They don'y want any perception that they are playing favorites. it might cost viewers and lost revenue which is all that matters. I thought the Sensata story would be huge and has only played out on MSNBC nighttime shows. No real reporting anymore.

My 3 cents: America is suffering outrage fatigue: Romney has been so full of shit for so long people have decided to vote against him and are blocking out everything he says.

MSM is corporate, and we are seeing the essence of what their chair(men) of the board votes to say...

Keep it close... steal the election afterward... Come out with the "Jeep Grand Romney" version, move it up the elevator... give the rest of us THE SHAFT.

It's a great distraction from Slick Willard's deceit.
