the last commuter in the Commonwealth who eats breakfast at home before work while reading the morning Globe. Everyone else it seems gobbles down some gawd-awful mixture of caffeine, high fructose corn syrup and preservatives somewhere on the MBTA or else at their desk.
So I must be the only citizen who duly noticed that the President's comments on the "The Gates Affair" were given front page above the fold headline treatment in the Globe today...while his press conference on the vital issue of health care was almost but not quite a front page sidebar below the fold.
I mean what does that tell you about the sad sick desperation of the print driven news media these days?
You wouldn't mind so much, but the Globe has been doing yeoman work even in these twilight times with respect to Beacon Hill chicanery, the pension issue and the looming gubernatorial race among others....I guess even they can't resist the sheer glitzy allure of it.
