Subject: It's a Boston thing, you wouldn't understand...
Yesterday's (Friday) Boston Globe's upper-left headline read:
DICHOTOMY EVIDENT
AS NOW MEETS
IN BOSTON
(NOW as in Nat'l Org for [or maybe it's of] Women.)
I ask you, would such a headline appear at the top of a Cincinnatti or
Dallas or Minneapolis/St Paul newspaper? Anywhere else? The Globe, by
the way, is not only the "NY Times of Boston" (cough, well, hey, its
nearest competitor, the Boston Herald, is of the ``Wife Kills Hubby,
Makes Sandwiches'' variety), the Times even owns the damn thing as of
last week, bought it for $1.1B. I wonder if that's related somehow?
Dichotomy Evident??? Who the hell writes banner headlines like that?
-b, as in Boston Baked headlines
