Saying you hate white people from West Roxbury
Does kind of call their motives into question, no,?
Even Better
Alexandra Oliver-Dávila, one of the two Westie White resignations, has strong ties to the Barr Foundation.
For those of you unfamiliar with The Barr Foundation, it is run mostly by billionaire Beacon Hill and S'Conset beachfront (it's quite a house and they moved it away from the cliff because of erosion) residents the Hostetters. They are the ones who are underwriting the Globe's coverage of Boston's schools, for which some of the stories have their reasoning stretched more than that BSDM guy running for City Council in NYC.
One of the aims of this coverage is to change the BPS to their likings, save for Amos and Barbara, who lived on Beacon Hill when their three children were of school age sent their children to prep schools outside of the city.
Do As I Say, Not Do As I Do Billionaires. I'd say their motives are incredibly questionable.
Do we really want really, really rich people dictating from on high? I don't.

Are you implying John, that the Boston Globe might have an agenda?

High Comedy Last Week In The Globe
The Globe accused unions of forming a coalition to try to use their influence on the Boston mayoral election. The Globe was aghast that someone was using their influence. What organization run by people who live outside the city would ever have the stones to do that, save for The Globe?
Sometimes I think that the music echoing off buildings that break dancers by the Sam Adams statue are using is causing damage to logic areas of certain brains on the lower floors at 53 State Street.
interesting, but
why should we take your word - that the coverage is inherently biased - rather than their word saying that it will not be?
Take A Minute
Introduce yourself to the real world rather than the make believe one you appear to be living in with that statement. You are smarter than that.
This team has been running since 2019
Can you point to some examples that clearly show this bias and explain what coverage you would have rather seen?
TY for this comment about
TY for this comment about Barr & BPS Coverage. I canceled my subscription after getting fed up w the bias in stories & same old tropes about bully unions & bad teachers. (The facilities are in shambles, that’s accurate).
Are we
cancelling everyone that possesses bias? Asking for a friend.
Never fear
