Has anyone seen the Sensata story in the msm?

It's from an IL factory and I don't see it on the Chicago newspaper's websites and I'm only seeing it on liberal sites when I google?

Am I missing something?

I'm hoping someone took out their cell phone and got a pic of the IL factory with the China flag but I haven't been able to find a pic.

Hoping this story will be everywhere soon. I just don't trust the msm.

and will continue to talk about it. If the MSM was going to pick up on it, I'd guess they'd do it over a weekend when no one is watching. You always push stories on weekend's and Friday's when you don't want "big" news coverage over it.

not from China with the China flag. It would be much more powerful.

This is a story worth pushing, but let's be honest about it. That picture is from China as you can see from the writing on the wall as well as the mopeds. If you watch the video it came from, it was put up during a discussion about the plants already in China.

That it appears to be flying ABOVE the U.S. flag which is a huge breach of protocol.

It is Saturday, traditionally the news' day off. I think it would be better for it to really break on Monday when everyone is back to work etc.
