From iGeek
Founded in 1872 was originally controlled by Irish Catholic interests before being sold to other leftists.

Rather than being a neutral Journalistic source, the former editorial page editor Renée Loth described The Globe as having "a long tradition of being a progressive institution, and especially on social issues", but did qualify it with "We are a lot more nuanced and subtle than that liberal stereotype does justice to".
Yet, they endorsed Hillary Clinton, started a campaign against Trump for calling out bad journalism, and basically taking more than a few bad and far left positions. Thus they descended from being a purveyor of news to progressive activism. And since progressives can't get what they want by telling the truth, they are not above one-side spin, lies of omission, and a series of embarrassing gaffe's that always lean to the far left.
Examples[edit | edit source]
- 2019.04.11 Food Tampering Editorial - A Boston Globe columnist (Luke O'Neil) called for waiters to piss in the food of Trump administration officials, in the name of tolerance. (Removed after backlash). It's not just the authors bad judgement but the editorial staff, and attitude that it is symptomatic of, that's the real hate. If someone said that towards Obama/dem, they would be fired.
- 2019.07.31 One Redeeming Quality? - One of the perfect examples of FakeNews was an OpEd in the Boston Globe asking whether Trump has a single redeeming quality, and answering "no". Tje Globe Editorial staff thought this was News and to failed the fact checking on 55 different lies littered throughout. That is the best Journalism that the Globe can manage.
- Steve Bannon - Anti-Christ (homophobic, racist, anti-semite, xenophobe) to the left. Trump, Israel, Liberty supporting ex-CEO of Breitbart.com to the informed. He's defintely a political pundit and supporter, but he's demonized for his politics, more than for anything he says or believes in particular. Ask for evidence that he's what the left claims, and they go silent.
- Break up Google? - Should Google be broken up? My Libertarian PoV is to use that as the tool of last resort, and I don't think we've tried the others yet. But I do think there's plenty of room to make sure they're following certain rules. And if they do not (which they don't), it gives more justification to break them up than Standard Oil, or ATT.
- Global Cooling Scare - Many downplay the Global Cooling craze of the 1970's, but it was a real, large and popular movement based on the "Scientific Consensus" of the day, and was sensationalized by the media. When the temp trends flipped, they flipped too: same cause, same cure -- man is to blame, we need Marxism to save us. So says the Marxists and their flock.
- Globe corrects falacious story about DailyWire - Only after community pressure did the Boston Globe correct a malicious slander about Ben Shapiro’s Daily Wire an an ‘Alt-Right Outpost’. Ben Shapiro is Jewish. The Daily Wire is a moderate right website and news aggregator.
- Twitter Bans people for exposing the Andy Ngo assailants - Andy Ngo spent the evening in the hospital with a brain bleed (and caustic burns) after being attacked by antifa during a protest in Oregon. Gay son of Vietnamese immigrants should be hit with bricks for photographing the violence of the Anti-American left. Twitter banned/de-verifyied (@Lucet_Veritas, @Rambobiggs) for exposing who did it.
