If she is the writer and her column disappears for a reported two weeks, shouldn’t Globe readers be told why? Shouldn’t they also be made aware that the paper is holding someone accountable for a breach of its policies?

The press doesn't seem to hold themselves to the same standard of responsibility they hold others to... well, hold conservatives to... something like that. And while we're talking - what's with the Poynter Institute? They're commenting on a lack of openness while they own a newspaper that does NOT HAVE ONE CONSERVATIVE on staff? And there's NEVER a mention of that fact? Anywhere - ever?

I don’t know if he’s technically a staff member but they do have Jeff Jacoby as token conservative I think though

Jacoby entry in Wikipedia
>>Jeff Jacoby’s column has been published on the op-ed page of the Boston Globe since 1994. From 1987 to 1994, he was chief editorial writer for the Boston Herald. Within months of his debut at the Globe, he was described by the left-leaning Boston Phoenix as “the region’s pre-eminent spokesman for Conservative Nation,” and a columnist who had “quickly established himself as a must-read.”

So I don’t know if he’s technically on staff but they do
have a column by him...Otherwise...
