Chrysler VP To Trump: 'You're Full Of Sh**

I wasn't asking for a smart a$$ response just proof that what you are saying isn't a lie.

If China isn't already, they will be soon both the largest producer and consumer of new auto production. Do you want American car companies to be competitive and allow them to move production to China? Or would you prefer they lose sales and need another bailout?

Spin, spin, spin...

Too bad that three auto executives, and about 10 major newspapers and columnists have called RMoney for the liar he is.

On Monday, the 22nd of October, Bloomberg published an article which began, "Fiat SpA (F), majority owner of Chrysler Group LLC, plans to return Jeep output to China and may eventually make all of its models in that country, according to the head of both automakers’ operations in the region." That was picked up by other news outlets and reported as Fiat considering moving production to China.

It wasn't until the 25th, the same day that Romney made his remarks at the rally in Ohio, that Chrysler sought to clarify the reports in its blog that it was considering expanding production instead of moving production, a blog which was time stamped at about 4:30 that afternoon.

This is all known information archer. It was reported that Fiat was moving production instead of expanding starting on the 22nd and continuing until the 25th, that is not in any way in question at this point. The blog from Chrysler seeking to address that misconception shows that it was indeed being reported that way and that the reporting was so widespread that they felt they needed to address the topic. Which of the many possible news venues that incorrectly reported the situation Romney or his staff pulled the report from isn't known, but to attempt to convey that Romney intentionally misrepresented it at the rally is, at best, disingenuous on your part.

It isn't spin, Bloomberg, reported it.

I'll wait for that to sink in...

To be fair, Bloomberg noted, much further down in the article, that it was a return to Chinese production for Chinese consumption that was being considered. Jeep has been absent from that market since about 2009 due to the financial difficulties of Chrysler. It is readily apparent, however, that many of the "reporters" for other news organizations didn't read beyond the first paragraph when drafting their own stories for the outlets they worked for and failed to include that salient point in their own work.

And to be critical, the Romney campaign should have done their own homework rather than relying on what was being widely reported. They should have known from firsthand experience that most of what the news media is reporting is at best only half truth and not trusted it to the extent that they did.

Not really much more than Monday morning quarterbacks all saying that Team A should have done X instead of Y the day after the game has been played.
