History

[edit]

The Boston Globewas founded in 1872 by sixBostonbusinessmen who jointly invested $150,000 (equivalent to $3,815,000 in 2023).[1]The founders includedEben Dyer Jordanof theJordan Marshdepartment store, andCyrus Wakefieldof theWakefield Rattan Companyand namesake of the town ofWakefield, Massachusetts.[12]: 3–5 The first issue was published on March 4, 1872, and sold for four cents (equivalent to $1.02 in 2023).[1]In August 1873, Jordan hiredCharles H. Tayloras temporary business manager; in December, Taylor signed a contract to be general manager of the paper for two years.[1]He would serve as the firstpublisherofThe Boston Globeuntil his death in 1921, and was succeeded by four of his descendants until 1999.[citation needed]

Originally a morning daily, theGlobebegan its Sunday edition in 1877. A weekly edition calledThe Boston Weekly Globe,catering to mail subscribers outside the city, was published from 1873 until it was absorbed by the Sunday edition in 1892.[13][12]: 101 In 1878,The Boston Globestarted an afternoon edition calledThe Boston Evening Globe,which ceased publication in 1979. By the 1890s,The Boston Globehad become a stronghold, with an editorial staff dominated byIrish American Catholics.[14]

20th century

[edit]
The oldGlobeheadquarters onWashington Streetin Boston

In 1912, theGlobewas one of a cooperative of four newspapers, including theChicago Daily News,The New York Globe,and thePhiladelphia Bulletin,to form theAssociated Newspaperssyndicate.[citation needed]

In the early 1900's Charles H. Taylor was responsible for making the Globe the most used Newspaper in New England. He went into greater details regarding social movements such as theWomen's Suffrage Movement.[15]While other competitors such asThe Boston Postdid not shine as much light on these social movements.

In the1940 Massachusetts gubernatorial election,theGlobecorrectly projected the re-election of Republican incumbentLeverett Saltonstall,using methods first established by Taylor; rivalThe Boston Postcalled the race incorrectly for DemocratPaul A. Dever.[16]

In 1955,Laurence L. Winshipwas named editor, ending a 75-year period of the role being held by the paper's publishers.[12]: 447 In the next decade, theGloberose from third to first in the competitive field of what was then eight Boston newspapers.[17]

In 1958, theGlobemoved from its original location onWashington Streetin downtown Boston toMorrissey Boulevardin theDorchesterneighborhood.[18]

In 1965,Thomas Winshipsucceeded his father as editor. The younger Winship transformed theGlobefrom a mediocre local paper into a regional paper of national distinction. He served as editor until 1984, during which time the paper won a dozenPulitzer Prizes,the first in the paper's history.[19]

The Boston Globewas a private company until 1973 when it went public under the nameAffiliated Publications.It continued to be managed by the descendants of Charles Taylor. In 1993,The New York Times Companypurchased Affiliated Publications forUS$1.1billion, makingThe Boston Globea wholly owned subsidiary ofThe New York Times'parent.[20][21]The Jordan and Taylor families received substantial The New York Times Company stock, but by 1999 the last Taylor family members had left management.[22]

Boston.com,the online edition ofThe Boston Globe,was launched on theWorld Wide Webin 1995.[23]Consistently ranked among the top ten newspaper websites in America,[24]it has won numerous national awards and took two regionalEmmy Awardsin 2009 for its video work.[25]

The Boston Globehas consistently been ranked in the forefront of American journalism.Timemagazine listed it as one of the ten best US daily newspapers in 1974 and 1984, and theGlobetied for sixth in a national survey of top editors who chose "America's Best Newspapers" in theColumbia Journalism Reviewin 1999.[26]

Under two editors,Martin Baronand thenBrian McGrory,theGlobeshifted away from coverage of international news in favor of Boston-area news.[27]

GlobereportersMichael Rezendes,Matt Carroll,Sacha PfeifferandWalter Robinson,and editorBen Bradlee Jr.were instrumental in uncovering theRoman Catholic Church sex abuse scandalin 2001–2003, especially in relation to Massachusetts churches. The Boston Globe was awarded thePulitzer Prizefor their work and the work of other staff, one of several the paper has received for its investigative journalism,[28]and their work was dramatized in the 2015Academy Award-winningfilmSpotlight,named after the paper's in-depth investigative division.[29]

The Boston Globewas the paper that allowedPeter Gammonsto start hisNotessection on baseball, which has become a mainstay in many major newspapers nationwide. In 2004, Gammons became the 56th recipient of theJ. G. Taylor Spink Awardfor outstanding baseball writing, given by theBBWAA;he was honored at theBaseball Hall of Fameon July 31, 2005.[30]

In 2007,Charlie Savage,whose reports onPresident Bush's use ofsigning statementsmade national news, won thePulitzer Prize for National Reporting.[31]

On April 2, 2009, The New York Times Company threatened to close the paper if its unions did not agree to $20 million of cost savings.[32][33]Some of the cost savings include reducing union employees' pay by 5%, ending pension contributions, ending certain employees' tenures.[32][33]

The Boston Globeeliminated the equivalent of 50 full-time jobs; among buy-outs and layoffs, it swept out most of the part-time employees in the editorial sections. However, early on the morning of May 5, 2009, The New York Times Company announced it had reached a tentative deal with the Boston Newspaper Guild, which represents most of theGlobe'seditorial staff, that allowed it to get the concessions it demanded. The paper's other three major unions had agreed to concessions on May 3, 2009, after The New York Times Company threatened to give the government 60 days' notice that it intended to close the paper.[34]Despite the cuts helping to "significantly [improve]" its financial performance by October of that year, theGlobe'sparent company indicated that it was considering strategic alternatives for the paper, but did not plan to sell it.[35]

As of 2010, theGlobehosted 28blogscovering a variety of topics, includingBoston sports,local politics, and a blog made up of posts from the paper's opinion writers.[36]

In September 2011,The Boston Globelaunched a dedicated, subscription-based website at bostonglobe.com.[37]

Starting in 2012, theGlobeprovided a printing and circulating service for theBoston Herald,and by 2013, was handling its rival's entire press run.[6]This arrangement remained in place until 2018, ending after the acquisition of theHeraldbyDigital First Media.[38]

In February 2013,The New York Times Companyannounced that it would sell itsNew England Media Group,which encompasses theGlobe;bids were received by six parties, including John Gormally, then-owner ofWGGB-TVinSpringfield, Massachusetts,another group included members of formerGlobepublishers, the Taylor family, andBoston Red Soxprincipal ownerJohn W. Henry,who bid for the paper through theNew England Sports Network,which was majority owned byFenway Sports Groupand theBoston Bruins.However, after the NESN group dropped out of the running to buy the paper, Henry made his separate bid to purchase theGlobein July 2013.[39][40]

On October 24, 2013, he took ownership of theGlobe,at a $70million purchase price,[41][42]and renamed the ventureBoston Globe Media.

On January 30, 2014, Henry named himself publisher and named Mike Sheehan, a prominent former Boston ad executive, to be CEO.[43]As of January 2017,Doug Franklin replaced Mike Sheehan as CEO,[44]then Franklin resigned after six months in the position, in July 2017, as a result of strategic conflicts with owner Henry.[45]

In July 2016, the 815,000-square-foot headquarters in Dorchester was sold to an unknown buyer for an undisclosed price.[46]TheGlobemoved its printing operations in June 2017 to Myles Standish Industrial Park inTaunton, Massachusetts.Also in June 2017, theGlobemoved its headquarters toExchange Placein Boston'sFinancial District.[47]

In July 2022, James Dao, a senior editor with 30 years of experience at The New York Times, was named the editorial page editor, succeeding Bina Venkataraman.[48]

In November 2022,The Boston Globeannounced that NPR news chiefNancy Barneswould replaceBrian McGroryas editor.[9]

Editorial pages

[edit]
Final paragraph of a March 1891Globeeditorial discussingThomas Brackett Reed,signed "Uncle Dudley"

Starting with the Sunday edition in 1891,[12]: 75 and expanded to weekday editions in 1913,[12]: 176 each lead editorial in theGlobewas signed "Uncle Dudley", a practice ended by editor Thomas Winship in 1966.[49][50]

In March 1980, theGlobepublished an editorial about a speech by PresidentJimmy Carter,which included the accidental headline "Mush from the Wimp"during part of the press run, drawing national attention.[51]

Since 1981, the editorial pages of theGlobehave been separate from the news operation,[52]as is frequently customary in thenews industry.Editorials represent the official view ofThe Boston Globeas a community institution. The publisher reserves the right to veto an editorial and usually determines political endorsements for high office.[53]

TheGlobemade its first political endorsement in 1967, supportingKevin Whitein that year'sBoston mayoral election.[54]TheGlobehas consistently endorsed Democratic presidential candidates, such asJoe Bidenin the2020 presidential election.,[55]but has sometimes endorsed Republicans in state and local elections, such as Charlie Baker for governor.[56]

Describing the political position ofThe Boston Globeeditorial page in 2001, former editorial page editor Renée Loth told theBoston Universityalumni magazine:

TheGlobehas a long tradition of being aprogressiveinstitution, and especially on social issues. We support woman's rights; We are pro-choice; we're against the death penalty; we're for gay rights. But if people read us carefully, they will find that on a whole series of other issues, we are not knee-jerk. We're forcharter schools;we're for any number of business-backed tax breaks. We are a lot more nuanced and subtle than thatliberalstereotype does justice to.[57]

James Dao became the editorial page editor in 2022.[58]

August 2018 campaign

[edit]

In August 2018, the editorial board launched a coordinated campaign for newspapers nationwide to respond to PresidentDonald Trump's "enemy of the people" attacksand "fake news"rants against the media by publishing locally produced editorial responses on Thursday, August 16.[59][60]Within a couple of days, an estimated 100+ newspapers had pledged to join the campaign,[61]jumping to roughly 200 a few days later.[62]

On August 13, theRadio Television Digital News Associationand its Voice of the First Amendment Task Force encouraged its 1,200 member organizations to join the campaign,[63]while other media organizations also helped spread the call to action.[64]Even as some right-leaning outlets portrayed theGlobe's campaign as an attack on the president, rather than his rhetorical attacks on theFourth Estate,[65][66]some newspapers got a head start, releasing content on August 15,[67][68]while 350 newspapers participated in the event on August 16.[69][70]

From August 10 to 22, approximately 14 threatening phone calls were made toBoston Globeoffices.[71][72][73]The caller stated that theGlobewas the "enemy of the people" and threatened to kill newspaper employees.[74]On August 30, California resident Robert Chain was arrested by an FBISWATteam and charged with a single count of making a threatening communication in interstate commerce.[74]In May 2019, Chain pleaded guilty in a US federal court to seven counts of making threatening communications in interstate commerce.[75]

Winship was named editor by publisher William Davis Taylor.[106][12]: 447 Winship became the paper's top editor following the death of James Morgan, longtimede factoexecutive editor.[107]Morgan had joined theGlobein January 1884, hired by Charles H.

Incidents of fabrication and plagiarism

[edit]

In 1998, columnistPatricia Smithwas forced to resign after it was discovered that she had fabricated people and quotations in several of her columns.[110]In August of that year, columnistMike Barniclewas discovered to have copied material for a column from aGeorge Carlinbook,Brain Droppings.He was suspended for this offense, and his past columns were reviewed.The Boston Globeeditors found that Barnicle had fabricated a story about two cancer patients, and Barnicle was forced to resign.[111]ColumnistJeff Jacobywas suspended by theGlobein 2000 for failing to credit non-original content used in his column.[112]

In 2004, theGlobeapologized for printing graphic photographs that the article represented as showing U.S. soldiers raping Iraqi women during theIraq Warfrom a city councilor's presentation before they were verified. The photos had already been found by other news organizations to be from an internet pornography site.[113][114]

In the spring of 2005, theGloberetracted a story describing the events of a seal hunt nearHalifax,Nova Scotia,that took place on April 12, 2005. Written by freelancer Barbara Stewart, a formerNew York Timesstaffer, the article described the specific number of boats involved in the hunt and graphically described the killing of seals and the protests that accompanied it. In reality, weather had delayed the hunt, which had not yet begun the day the story had been filed, proving that the details were fabricated.[115][116]

ColumnistKevin Cullenwas suspended by theGlobein 2018 for embellishing claims he made on radio and in public appearances related to theBoston Marathon bombing.[117]

Websites

[edit]

The Boston Globemaintains two distinct major websites: BostonGlobe.com is a subscriber-supported site with apaywalland content from the printed paper; andBoston.com,one of the first regional news portals,[118]is supported by advertising. Between September 2011 and March 2014, theGlobegradually withdrew stories written byGlobejournalists from Boston.com, making the sites more and more separated.[119]BostonGlobe.com was designed to emphasize a premium experience focusing on content and emulating the visual appearance ofThe Boston Globenewspaper; the site was one of the first major websites to use aresponsive designthat automatically adapts its layout to a device's screen size. Boston.com followed suit in 2014. The two sites are aimed towards different readers; while Boston.com became targeted towards "casual" readers and local content, the newBoston Globewebsite is targeted towards the audience of the paper itself.[120][121][122]

In 2012, theSociety for News Designselected BostonGlobe.com as the world's best-designed news website.[123]

Digital subscriptions

[edit]

TheGlobehad 226,000 digital subscribers as of December 2021, among the highest of any metro newspapers in the country.[124]

Boston Globe Media Partners, which owns theGlobe,operates a number of websites covering certain niche subjects. The sites share many resources, like office space, with theGlobe,but are often branded separately from the newspaper:

  • Boston.comis a regional website that offers news and information about theBoston, Massachusettsarea.
  • Loveletters.boston.com is a love advice column run byMeredith Goldstein,an advice columnist and entertainment reporter forThe Boston Globe.
  • Realestate.boston.com is a regional website that offers advice on buying, selling, home improvement, and design with expert advice, insider neighborhood knowledge, the latest listings to buy or rent, and a window into the world of luxury living.
