“And, in other news, Gibson announced they are moving production overseas meaning the loss of hundreds of jobs.”

Undoubtedly true.

They’ve already done that. Most of their Epiphone line is already made overseas.

In this case it wouldn't do them a bit of good to move overseas. Gibson is suspected of illegally obtaining rosewood from Madagascar. Even if they moved overseas that illegally gotten wood in the guitars would never be allowed to be sold in the USA, their largest market for Gibson guitars.
