I'm sitting here looking at the Freep's coverage of the NAIAS, and for the first time I'm questioning the wisdom of hosting this event in the Detroit area.
I'm questioning the show's location since in Detroit everyones personal interests are hitched to the Big 3. It's not a Paris or Tokyo, in which constructive criticism can be offered without fear of biting the only hand that feeds, so to speak. [[E.g. I can't recall anyone at the time, Detroit media or otherwise, ever acknowledging that the Pontiac Aztek was a REALLY bad idea.)
So could the Big 3 have better handled P.R and product quality issues in the past if the premier domestic show were held in NYC or L.A., instead of on their front porch?
