Saab is "about to disappear"?

Imagine my disgust this evening when a promo for a WBZ-TV Boston news story aired that said and I quote:
"Would you buy a Saab, Saturn or Volvo if they're about to disappear and is it a good idea to buy a car that's going off the market?! Tune in on Monday at 5 PM to find out..."
And this story is set to air in probably THE most important market for Saabs in the United States. Boston, Massachusetts!
Either someone at this news station is seriously out of touch with reality or else they're trying to increase ratings during the coming “Sweeps week”.
I went to their website and found the Contact Us link where I posted a tip that they should re-edit their story because the facts have changed... OK, Saturn is still DOA but Saab is "saved" and Volvo was never in any danger.
