It's nice that Boston has a newspaper that will print what the Kennedy/DNC-controlled Globe would surely never print - - the truth.
The Boston Globe is owned by the New York Times ~ big surprise huh?

On October 1, 1993, The Globe and Affiliated Publications merged with the New York Times Company in the largest, single newspaper merger and acquisition in U.S. history. The Boston Globe thus became a wholly-owned subsidiary of The New York Times company. It was a historic merger that marked the beginning of an alliance of two great newspapers and two great newspaper families - The Taylors of The Globe and The Sulzbergers of The Times - in American newspaper publishing.

FOR AT LEAST 50 years the Globe and the Herald have competed for the affection and loyalty of Greater Boston and New England. As the citys dominant dailies and, since the early 1970s, as Bostons only seven-day papers they fought in the 1950s and 60s over the Heralds receipt of a license to operate a television station, an exception to the Federal Communications Commissions ban on cross-ownership. Herald owner Robert "Beanie" Choate tried to get the Taylor family, which owned the Globe, to sell to him; but the Taylors refused, and unleashed a future executive editor, Robert Healy, on the FCC story. With a surreptitious assist from future House Speaker Tip ONeill, Healy demonstrated that Choate had improperly sought to influence the chairman of the FCC, forcing the Herald by then the Herald Traveler to sell to the Hearst Corporation in 1972.

In the 90s, the papers pulled an unusual ownership switch: the locally owned Globe was sold by the Taylor family to the New York Times Company for $1.1 billion (half of the Times Companys valuation), while Murdoch sold the Herald to Purcell for an estimated $15 million to $20 million. Suddenly it was the Herald that enjoyed local ownership and the Globe that was controlled by an out-of-town corporation. The Globes status as the citys and the regions largest and most influential media institution remained unchallenged. But the Herald, under Andy Costello, Andrew Gully, and comanaging editor Kevin Convey (now editor-in-chief of Purcells Community Newspaper chain), continued what Chandler had begun, putting out an aggressive alternative to the Globe that competed hard on breaking news, local politics, business, and sports, while offering underrated arts-and-entertainment coverage as well.
