Boston Globe

Pros: Covers all aspects of the city, nation and the world.
Cons: The classifieds are in several areas.

Pros: Great international, political and sports coverage
Cons: Bias toward the wealthy, they play hide and seek with the comics!

I have been a Globe subscriber for quite a while now, and generally I am impressed with the paper. I know I can count on it to clearly and completely cover international news, politics, sports, and big national stories. Where I am less impressed with...

Pros: A days reading for 50 cents.
Cons: Opinionated news stories

Skip the Globe if you're looking for unbiased news coverage. So called news stories read like they were written by opinionated column writers. I constantly read "news" stories wondering why there is opinion blended in. Stick to factual...

Pros: Good national coverage
Cons: poor local coverage

Boston Globe is the most prominent newspaper here in Boston. Owned by the New York Times, the Globe gives great coverage of the national scene, good coverage of the international scene, and little coverage of the local scene. It is by no means a...

Pros: Great sports and arts coverage
Cons: Confusing classified organization

For a person who lives in Dartmouth, MA, over 50 miles south of the city of Boston, I depend on the Globe for most of my regional news, as well as great sports coverage everyday.
While the Globe is known for very extensive and involved national...

Pros: just about everything
Cons: no more Mike Barnicle

The Boston Globe is owned by the NY Times and when you read it, that becomes almost self explanatory. It's pattern is much like that of the Times, although it tends to be a larger paper.
The news stories are well written and very detail orientated...

Pros: writing quality, news depth, sports coverage
Cons: none except size

It's hard to believe that a newspaper with the quality and clarity that the Boston Globe presents daily is able to be put together in just 24 hours. There's so much to read, it could easily take you a couple of hours to read everyday's paper. The paper...

Pros: good sports coverage; inexpensive
Cons: none

Without a doubt, the sportswriters for the Boston Globe are among the very best in the business. The sports section in the Globe is as well-written as it is informative, and the fusion of regional and national sports coverage is impressive. Writers...

Pros: Variety of stories, writing
Cons: Metro section could be larger

I read the Boston Globe - whether the hard copy - or on-line - virtually every single day. It cannot even be compared to the other paper in town, the Boston Herald. That is, the Globe, quite simply, is wonderful. And the main reason it is wonderful is...

Pros: Great writers, straight forward articles, decent layout overall, good price
Cons: Sometimes it's so interesting I don't have enough time to read it all

I occasionally will pick up the Boston Globe and I am very pleased with the overall layout of this newspaper.

First of all the writers are great! The articles published are straight and to the point which I know is one of the biggest things...

Pros: Best sports section
Cons: Poor business section

The Boston Globe has the best sports section in the country, bar none. Even though I have been a New York resident for the last 10 years, I still went to the out-of-town newsstand in Times Square almost everyday to pick up a day old Boston Globe until...

Pros: Good funny pages
Cons: Liberal slant interferes with "good" news stories

The Boston Globe, like the New York Times who owns it, is nothing more than a liberal rag. If you need the biased reporting that you can find in the Boston Globe, then all you need to do is watch NBC (Nothin But Clinton), ABC...

Pros: Good Reporting, up to date information
Cons: Delivery service could stand some improving

The Boston Globe, owned by the New York Times, is the best Metro Boston newspaper. The news is up-to-date and they always have sections that are not only interesting, but also educational. The newspaper is very reserved in some senses, not turning to...

Pros: Balanced topic reporting, volume, value
Cons: arts writing, non-A sections perhaps of little interest outside NE

The Globe is certainly the best paper published in New England and stands with any nationwide paper in terms of depth and quality. The A section is very well-balanced with stories of national, international, and regional interest. The editorials in...

Pros: Recyclable
Cons: Trees still must die, however

Blah blah blah. The Globe is better at covering international news than the Herald. The Globe's Living Arts section tells me everything I know to be a proper Bostonian. The Globe's editorial page makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
