Automotive News & Bob Brockman

Have you ever noticed that Automotive News will not do a "bad" article about Mr. Brockman? No matter how many dealers complain and talk about his deceptive business practices. Or even better have you noticed that Reynolds is never looked at as being bad by the news organization? Why have we not see questionnaires at NADA about which DMS system is treating you badly? Which DMS is overcharging for features? Remember many years ago all the surveys at NADA that would talk about which DMS do you use and how would you rate them on a scale of 1 being crappy and 10 being awesome? Why has those surveys stopped?

Could it be Bob Brockman and his dream team of legal threatened NADA that if they put out those surveys to dealers, they could be sued for defamation? Maybe it could be Reynolds told Automotive News they would lose a "huge" advertiser, which means lost revenue for the popular news agency. Could it be because one of the top advertisers in Automotive News is Reynolds & Reynolds?

I for one am glad the news in this country is not controlled... (yeah right).
