But what's worse. Losing the endorsement of a little itty-bitty paper that

The Herald, which used to belong to Slimeball Murdoch, is not
Beantown's major newspaper.

The Boston Globe is New England's dominant newspaper. Its daily
circulation is twice that of the Herald, and its Sunday circulation is
four times as large.

This list is a couple of days old. I read somewhere that Newsday just
endorsed Kerry.
