The Washington Post committed an edgy act of journalism by actually reading the SEC prospectuses (prospecti?) of companies where Bain had big investments under Mitt Romney’s watch, and, no surprise, those companies bragged about their outsourcing.
Unlike the immigration surprise, which they pretty much ducked this week, the Romney campaign had to have known that Bain did a lot of outsourcing, so their stonewalling response is a bit puzzling. I would have thought they’d have some kind of re-branding strategy, saying that those jobs “self-deported” or something like that.
Update: Thanks to everyone who caught Glenn Kessler’s Four Pinocchio stupidity in Wednesday’s Post:
The Obama campaign apparently loves to ding former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney with the charge of “outsourcing.” On several occasions, we have faulted the campaign for its claims, apparently to little avail.
