I believe Gosn is loosing his credibility, but I do agree, Kirkorian would like to see Wagoner out on the street with Gosn sitting in his seat. Problem is, the board is impressed with the Wagoner turn around plan, the number of employees who took the buyout, the layoffs, the health care plan, etc. So it could end up that Wagoner will enter into talks, and come out with nothing and throw it into Kirkorian's face.

DETROIT -(Dow Jones)- Nissan North America's auto sales fell 19% in June compared to the prior year, as the Japanese auto maker struggles to maintain momentum in the critical U.S. market.

Nissan North America, a unit of Nissan Motor Co. (NSANY), has recently hit the skids in the U.S. market following big sales gains in recent years.
