Sounds to be a legally sanctioned dirty lie on the part of Target. I have the feeling that they paid a lawyer to coach them on just how to say that, without getting sued. It probably bolied down to the TV being "ASSEMBLED" in the USA. No consumer TV set has been COMPLETELY US-made since 1972 (Zenith). Since then, some sets have been engineered here, boards made in one country with components from many others. Then assembled in a third country, and stuck in a box in the USA (or Mexico) with a CRT made here.
