Bob Lutz has come to realize the context is everything, and thinking before speaking is even more important. With the week that GM was having, the media was just frothing for some more bad news, like vultures over carrion. When Bob slipped and said that a brand could be in sights if they were suffering, dealers scurried finding the nearest phone to call GM headquarters and vent their frustrations. Bob tries to clear up the mess with a blog post.
