I’m an 81 year old who gave up The Globe last summer after reading it for my entire life.

I’m came close in the 70s when The Globe supported busing,which utterly destroyed The Boston Public Schools. I backed off.

Last summer was it for me——the utter adoration of Obama was the final straw.

I gave up on the Globe several years ago. I sort of figured out it wasn’t doing my disposition any good when I would angrily fling the paper down on the recycling pile almost every single morning for some example or other of their blatant bias and liberal world view that just automatically assumes that it is the correct view that any right thinking person would hold.

I gave it up decades ago when they took Johnny Hart off the comics.

[I] gave up The Globe last summer ... the utter adoration of Obama was the final straw.

The Chuck Turner carfuffle did it for me.

Back in ‘58 my father switched from the Globe to the old (original) Herald for his morning paper because the Globe had become too liberal. The Old Man was ahead of his time.
