Will they report it? I really doubt it. Unless they credit the Obamamagic like they did in my bet #3 (see list below). And if they do credit the Obamamagic, they’ll be sure to include their very newsy ‘n factual Obama-luvin’ banner icon under their story, in which he is depicted from slightly below with us looking up at Him, with a warm, halo-like glow above his Messiah-like head, as seen at left in which they were discussing his honeymoon.
The state-owned taxpayer-funded CBC should really mention this in their oxymoronic (emphasis on “moronic”) “YOUR BUSINESS” segment because this business news item reflects some extremely important business optimism amongst those capitalists who are relying on government bailouts and socialism-building “stimulus” packages! Of course this news comes before any “stimulus” cash has been voted on yet, and one must also remember that Ford took no bailout cash.
Oh! I see now. That ain’t liberal! (Or worse, socialist!) The state-owned, federally-funded, socialism-reliant CBC relies on socialism. So don’t inform the Canadians.
CBC. They’re the greatest.

CHICAGO — An executive at Ford Motor Co. [F-N] said the U.S. automobile industry is beginning to stabilize, after months of freefalling sales which have threatened the viability of some of the sector’s biggest players.
Jim Farley, Ford’s global marketing chief, said Wednesday that seasonally adjusted retail sales demand has held steady for the past four months. Meanwhile, the country’s used car market has come “roaring back” since January.
“That shows me that credit’s available,” he said, following a Ford presentation at the Chicago Auto Show. “When we’re seeing the kind of growth in the used car market that we’ve seen in the last six weeks, that is a really important milestone for the bottoming out of the industry.”
Huh. Without the government stimulus package? Must be a printing error. Or the media accidentally leaked out the wrong information.
