DETROIT, Jan 20 (Reuters)—Just as Chrysler LLC announced a sequel to its ownership saga, the struggling automaker also unveiled plans to help underwrite the fourth installment of the Terminator movie series.
Chrysler, which has received $4 billion in emergency aid from the U.S. government, has a deal to place its vehicles in cameo roles in Terminator Salvation, scheduled for release later this year and starring Christian Bale, executives said on Tuesday.
… Under private ownership, Chrysler has cut 36 percent of its employees, taking its combined blue-collar and white-collar staffing to the lowest level since 1934.
Under the terms of its federal bailout, the automaker must submit a restructuring plan next month and demonstrate it can be made viable by the end of March. It has said it will seek another $3 billion in U.S. government loans.
Hahah. What a bunch of douchebags.
That cylon is SCARY.
