gmc_medium_duty.jpg It seems General Motors Corp.'s rumored efforts to sell its medium-duty truck business to Navistar International Corp. were overshadowed by Cerberus Capital Management LP's purchase of the Chrysler Group. The news about such a deal first surfaced on Sunday in the Flint (Mich.) Journal. However, most larger publications — TheDeal.com included — overlooked the story on Monday morning. It wasn't until late Tuesday, when the Chicago Tribune picked up the story that it garnered national interest. —Matthew Wurtzel
