Late yesterday afternoon General Motors Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner held a news conference to discuss the viability plan that was submitted to the U.S. Treasury. The highlights have been noted by Blake M and Kevin M. Here I wanted to focus on some of the video coverage that has been available online.

First, Rick Wagoner’s press conference should be available to view at noon (EST) today. (Click read the rest of this entry below for additional videos)

Second is the video coverage by the associated press.

Finally, (to have a little fun with all of this bad news) it seems odd that Saturday Night Live may have had predicted the future correctly. It may be true that they did not have all of the dates and amounts correct, but they nailed the concept of what was to come.
