Galluccio news

[craigindaville.livejournal.com]

Does anyone else find it odd (or predictable) that the Somerville News has essentially no news on Senator Galluccio's recent scuffles with the law? Seeing as they will pounce on Senator Jehlen if she happens to, say, sneeze without covering her mouth, I just find it interesting that the only item on this subject is the verbatim posting of Galluccio's public apology. Is there some long-standing story here that I'm missing? Is Galluccio old friends with the Nortons? Discuss.

FWIW keep in mind the Journal is relying on reports about Galluccio from its Cambridge partner. That's what a quick scan of the bylines shows, at least. I may have missed something.

Knights of Templar and Sen. Jehlen? I think the best the Newstalkers could do recently was malign Alderman Gewirtz's lasagna. Did any of them actually try it? Doubtful.

I agree on your point that the poor souls only getting their news from the News are completely in the dark about Galluccio. The people responsible for going out and gathering the news aren't the ones maligning the Journal or Knights Templar meetings. I hope you shop local for salt.

Well, that makes sense, yes? It's not like the Somerville News would have to open a Cambridge bureau; they'd just have to make some phone calls.

Tom- I completely understand the difference between the news side and editorial side of the coin, and hoped I made that clear in my previous post. My goal wasn't to malign your reporting, but I'm surprised that there hasn't been any story whatsoever on it (and that, I know, is not necessarily your decision).

All salt is purchased locally and organically, I promise!
