First it was the strip ad at the bottom of Page One. Now the Boston Globe has inserted advertising into its In the news index that occupies the lefthand side of the front page every day.
And the interloping ad:
Yes yes – the Boston Herald also posts ads on its front page.
But the Boston Sports Clubs ad is clearly set off from the Herald’s editorial content. Which the Globe’s Citizens Bank interloper clearly is not.
Paging John Henry. Paging Boston Globe owner John Henry.

Interesting crisscross for the front pages of today’s local dailies.
Here’s what landed at the hardreading staff’s doorstep this morning.
Boston Herald:
Boston Globe:
But here’s Page One in the electronic editions of the two papers.
Boston Herald:
Boston Globe:
So the Herald ePaper features its late-edition front page while the Globe ePaper has its early one. Which makes it seem like the feisty local tabloid was out front of the stately local broadsheet on this story.
Except it wasn’t.
Were not sure what – if anything – this means. We only know the gap between the print world and the digital world just keeps getting wider.
