What is that old joke about the Liberal,Pro Multiculturalism, Boston Globe Editors and Columnists?

If you want to call them after 5pm, dial 1 first. They live in the white wealthy towns outside of Boston.

I don't know about the editors and columnists, but much of their journalist staff has been New York Times transplants. Combine that with having addresses in towns like Lexington, it is no wonder their inept local news coverage. I stopped reading them a very long time ago.

Howie Carr lives in gold-plated Wellesley. He laughs all the way to the bank with his pandering to the pickup truck and truck nuts audience. Selling advertising targeted at poorly educated white people is very profitable since they're so easy to influence.

So you have now added pickup trucks to your "list"? What kind of vehicles do the superior smart educated people drive?

Ah yes, the man of the people living in one of the top "beautiful people" towns in the state. I have not listened to him in years. Does he still ramble on about how the Marathon inconveniences him?

Did Howie Carr ever write for the Globe? How did we start talking about him? But should local newspapers hire more reporters like him today, perhaps they will earn their respect back.

It's a liberal "Fake News" rag.

Most of these anti-American papers will all be bankrupt within 5 years.

They lost touch with the people in favor of their corporate Deep State agenda. So sad.

I don't know what he does for material now that Ted Kennedy and Tom Menino are dead and Billy Bulger is long retired. I guess it's all Elizabeth Warren, all the time.
