I read it that way too, at first, mostly because of GM's recent strike & health benefit cut headlines.

That's pretty incredible that you read this article so fast that you managed to misread the ~30 instances of "GE" and "General Electric" as "GM" and "General Motors", and never noticed the giant "GE" logo at the top of the article, or the "General Electric" stock ticker on the sidebar.

It's almost like you only read the headline and nothing else, because the article itself screams "General Electric" in a way that nobody who actually visited the page would ever have been confused.

Yes. I guess it's because GM is in the news too.
