Chrysler announced that it is idling all 30 of its factories in the United States for a month, and the news carried well beyond Detroit. The decision impacts four plants in Indiana -- woes that "hit Indiana hard," said the Indianapolis Star. Its front page reported that more than 6,000 people are affected. Online, the Star offered an interactive graphic of the plants in Kokomo, Ind. In Ohio, the Toledo Blade included important numbers in its headlines -- "2 local plants" and "3,700 workers furloughed." The Blade bulleted information about the work stoppage. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch focused its story on talk of a merger between Chrysler and GM while noting that a pickup assembly plant in Missouri will be shut down from Friday into January.
