“He said in four to six months service will be as good as before the change, and then will continue to improve”

I wonder how long amazon would survive if their delivery system went tits up and would take four to six months before it was as good as new again?

Ever since John Henry put his new young wifie in charge the paper has become a joke,

Practically no news in the Sunday paper but very lengthy human interest stories.

Pure trash.

Absolutely no reason for subscribers to tolerate this nonsense. If the Globe can’t deliver, subscribers should cancel and find other more accurate and timely news sources.

Time for that rag to sleep with the fishes instead of just wrapping them.

The lame Boston Globe also makes you subscribe to view online articles. As if! They must have got in trouble again for all the illegals that drive illegally delivering the papers.

Hire local kids to deliver about 50 to a 100 papers in their own neighborhoods. That should take only an hour or so a day and teach them many life lessons.

It’s not like the old days. Subscribers are few and far between.

Is she really? How exactly does her role play out?

This delivery deal is epic executive incompetence.

Yes. Human interest stories that interest no sane human being.

The long slow swirl down the toilet bowl continues for the Boston version of Pravda (of the Cold War days).

Bye Globe.

She’s The Managing Director and the rapid decline of the Globe was accelerated when she was given a roll.

That’s classic—and classically pathetic.
