looking at a few of the slides, it may have been updated. the link says "premiers 12/8".

Lutz did a good interview today

He did well and those were not easy questions especially about his boss. You can tell he has a lot to say and really wants to get it out there but like most of the media they only want answers to their questions and not much else.

So it was the same one they aired a couple months ago? I remember Dale Jr. driving the Camaro in that one too. Or did they update it a little?

This was an update of that last show. The Camaro and Volt story were cut down a bit and they added GM's bid for government loans and the plan in place that went before Congress. They also added an interview with Fritz Henderson. They also went to a fastener supplier who is directly effected by GM to show how this all trickles down to the small American business.

They could have made a show at GM at almost any other time in history and its relevance would have stayed current for quite some time. But this year it's changed so fast for GM that even 3 months have made a difference.

He did pretty good considering the circumstances. They didn't seem to want to let him answer the questions. Like they wanted to cut him off and move to their next assault. Just about everone in the media is absolutely dripping with hate for GM.
