The feisty local tabloid has the self-promotion machine in overdrive today.
Page One (via the Newseum’s Today’s Front Pages):
And here’s the spread from pages 4 and 5:
Just for good measure, the Herald tosses an editorial (“Time for true reform”) and this Margery Eagan column into the mix:
Shocking! In Mass., they’re fixing a mess
Call it a shocker. A stunner. Another Massachusetts Miracle. Something you would never expect until Boston Harbor freezes over and 90 percent of our lawmakers have an “R” instead of a “D” next to their names.
Last year the Herald ran a series of stories detailing questionable unemployment claims filed by city and town workers. Yesterday, Gov. Deval Patrick announced reforms. And most everybody thinks Beacon Hill will actually OK those reforms — soon.
All thanks to the Herald, of course. Or so it seems.
