Any word
On the kid found hanging in kelly field?
Too bad for them.
It would have been better if they got hit with foul balls at Fenway. The Globe would have given them the upper right corner of the Sunday Metro section, a photo, 30+ column inches and two reporter credits.
I'm not making this up. This is what The Globe thinks is section front page news; http://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2015/07/11/fan-hit-ball-fenway-out-hosp...
Cheers to Stanley Staco and Adam for letting us know what actually happens in the city.

One must line a birdcage with
something. Might as well be the Glob.
It's the same reason
Why every local news outlet is reporting on shark sightings but not striped bass.
It has to do with frequency. Once something becomes the norm, it becomes less news worthy.
But when's the last time
a swimmer was mauled by a striped bass? Or when striped bass attacks were the subject of a novel which became a movie?

If striped bass ever get sharp teeth, I'm sure it will
make the news.
Toe-snacking bluefish

Here is the Globe story on the shooting on Bailey Street the other night.

That's only 1.9 miles from Shirley Leung's house and 2.9 miles from 135 Morrissey Boulevard. Way to go guys. Keep up the good work.
Another reason why I donate to this site
for the width and depth of Gaffin's commitment to bringing us the news the local big media ignores and his willingness to allow me to keep being an asshole commenter.
I must admit you are the pope of
assholiness and a joy to read whether you supply the gas or match!
