Gary Grates, VP of Communications for GM, has posted a long explanation of GM's decision to pull its LAT advertising on the company blog. (Link via: R-o-m-youcanguesstherest.)

GM has its own blog? Who knew? This suggests another intriguing possibility about what in the LAT rankled the company, which Grates still declines to specify. Maybe it wasn't Dan Neil's recent anti-GM piece, but instead David Shaw's recent anti-blogger piece.
