It makes sense the liberal media would ignore this story after they openly sided with Obama and did all they could to destroy Mitt. Bust as it turns out Mitt was right and the liberal media has once again been exposed as liars
It turns out that the Romney campaign was right to claim that Fiat, who owns Chrysler, would be making Jeeps in China instead of America, even though the media disparaged that case at the time with PolitiFact going so far as to declare the ad "Lie of the Year (http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2012/dec/12/lie-year-2012-Romney-Jeeps-China/)." According to PolitiFact, the campaign falsely implied the jobs would be outsourced, among other claims.
As Reuters reported (http://uk.reuters.com/article/2013/01/17/uk-fiat-marchionne-china-idUKBRE90G0O620130117) yesterday, "Fiat (FIA.MI) and its U.S. unit Chrysler expect to roll out at least 100,000 Jeeps in China when production starts in 2014 as they seek to catch up with rivals in the world's biggest car market."
As the Weekly Standard put it (http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/whoops-politifacts-lie-year-turns-out-be-true_696223.html?page=1), "Romney's ad never said Jeep was 'outsourcing' existing jobs. Again, a fair reading of the ad would be that it implied that Jeep was choosing to create new jobs overseas rather than in the U.S."

ABC's Jake Tapper, reporting on the November 3 edition of Good Morning America, said President Obama visited "small towns in Buckeye battleground, Ohio. And in all of them, he went after Mitt Romney for a TV ad here that falsely suggests local Jeep jobs are headed to China, which the company denies."
Reporting on PolitiFact selecting the campaign ad for "Lie of the Year," CNN's Ali Velshi labeled the ad a "bald-faced lie" and added that "What's clear is he [Romney] tried to deceive Ohioans and it backfired. And without Ohio, Mitt Romney lost possibly his best chance at the White House. The lie of the year may have cost Romney the election."
