Where’s Scott’s Crown?

January 29th, 2010 · No Comments · Politics

Funny. On the same day one Boston political insider asks me, “What has Scott Brown ever passed? What happens when this guy has to stop reading his clips and actually start working?” Brown gives us this, via the Herald:
“I don’t believe they’re going to say, ‘If you’re not with us we’re going to hold these [...]

I Read the Herald for the Articles, Not the Pictures

January 27th, 2010 · No Comments · Media

Hey Herald. Can you please stop slathering yourself in Scott Brown man-porn? People on the T are starting to look at me funny.
Alternate punchline: Funny how the paper has yet to run a photo of Scott Brown looking hunky while reading a book.

On Kids On TV

January 13th, 2010 · No Comments · Politics

Check out this Herald cover. Then imagine what it must be like to be Scott Brown’s other kid. She’s not on Fox this morning. She doesn’t get her face splattered all over the tabloids. No one cares to parade her around so she can try to explain her daddy’s abortion stance. It’s like she barely [...]

That Explains It

January 12th, 2010 · No Comments · Politics

Ex-Lynn mayor tells the Herald that he didn’t deliberately shred documents and dump emails on his way out the door. Because he’s been ignoring state public records law for, like, forever.

Bold Boldfacing

January 1st, 2010 · No Comments · Media

Yesterday’s Inside Track featured a roundup of Big Names To Watch in 2010. They included such not-watched-in-2009 names as, uh, Theo Epstein and Gisele and Ben Affleck. The year is sure to be unlike we have ever seen before.
Just one question: How did Mahmoud Ahmadinejad get left off the list???

Correction of the Decade

November 12th, 2009 · No Comments · Media

It’s from today’s Herald. Obviously. Here it is, reprinted in all its glory:
The Nov. 3, 2009 edition of the Boston Herald contained an article entitled “Perv Puts Boxford On Edge – Level 3 sex offender was flagger.” The article was accompanied by a photograph purporting to represent the individual subject of the story, David Giacalone. [...]

The Prof on the Payroll

October 20th, 2009 · No Comments · Media, Politics

Isn’t this nice. In today’s Herald, Jay Fitzgerald updates us on Clyde Barrow’s newest extracurricular activity: The high-profile UMass prof, who’s virtually the sole source of all those rosy projections about the windfall casino gambling would bring to Massachusetts, is back on the casino industry’s payroll.
Back in 1995, Barrow worked for the Aquinnah of Gay [...]

Communist President Barack Obama’s Communism Wearing on Local Commercial Real Estate Market

September 21st, 2009 · No Comments · Business, Media

That’s the thesis of this BostonHerald.com commenter, who replies to a perfectly fine market trend story thingy with the following bit of vitriol: “barry is running our economy into the ground while bowing to our enemies.”

Todd English Has Never Been to RF O’Sullivan’s

August 13th, 2009 · No Comments · Media

That’s the only conclusion I can draw from this weird quote he hands the Herald today: “I don’t think Boston’s really gotten it yet – a place that just sells burgers.”
And, because you don’t hate the guy enough already, he adds this: “And who doesn’t like a good burger? It’s the steak of our time.”

Herald Scribe Slays Irony

June 28th, 2009 · No Comments · Media

Hahaha! So today, the Herald’s Ron Borges smacks around infertile female/Dodgers outfielder Manny Ramirez.
Borges calls Manny a “miscreant” who “created his own suspension by both cheating and then being stupid enough to get caught.” And he says other not-nice things as well.
Wait. Why is Borges writing for the Herald again? Ah. That’s it. [...]
