who says he's covering transportation?
Maybe he's going to cover politics.
Or maybe Bierman's got a PR job lined up at the MBTA. I hear the Globe transportation beat is a nice pipeline to that sort of thing. /sarcasm
Media Log says it did ...
Given all the transportation stories lately, having two reporters might be a decent idea.

What would be really cool, so the Globe'll never do it
Hire a fulltime transportation blogger.
Let the newsroom reporter keep writing important big-picture transportation stories (hopefully with fewer stories about brand-new bridges that turn out to be 100 years old); let the blogger cover everyday life on the T and 128. I bet you it would become one of boston.com's most read sections within two months.
What Ross'll be covering
Commercial real estate and "the nexus of business and politics," Adam Reilly reports.
I'm betting
the Globe won't make him do stakeouts on undocumented immigrants. so, that will be a nice change.
hope they give him the play he deserves.
Stops and Starts
I used to check that Sunday column pretty regularly
in the Globe. One Sunday, after reading it end to end,
I drove to Dorchester on an errand...to discover that
it was Dorchester Day, and the entire road system
was virtually shutdown across the biggest neighborhood
in town.
Thank you Mac Daniel. How's many sick/vacation days
have you banked so far at the Pike?
Look over your shoulder Noah!
With a strong background covering transportation in Massachusetts, Casey is well suited to take over the transp beat at the Globe if Bierman continues to make major blunders like the Greenbush bridge story.
