Goodlettsville...Iowa (IBP plant mentioned)? Never heard of it (native Iowan, here). Ah, I see WKRN is in Nashville (Tennessee, I presume).

IBP is the Tyson acquisition fiasco. Tyson offered a ton of money for the company, only to renig on the offer. Then IBP stockholders took Tyson to court over the mess, and the judge ordered Tyson to honor it's bid. The big guy at Tyson just resigned over it. (I think it was Don Tyson, HRC's cattle future buddy) Funny what happens to all the FOB/H isn't it?
