From our Boston Herald as Lively Index to the Boston Globe desk:
The respective front pages of the Herald and the Globe on the death of legendary Boston Mayor Kevin White:
The text tells the tale, though: the Herald was compact, the Globe was comprehensive.
Edge: Brian Mooney’s Globe piece – a wide-ranging appreciation of White’s tumultuous tenure as mayor of a big city in transition and turmoil.
The hardworking staff will say it again: Gotta love a two-daily town.


You screwed up on this one. That Herald cover was the second one they published this morning. The first one got sent out to doorsteps, but they quickly fixed it for the online edition and this morning sent around trucks to pull the old copies out of newspaper boxes.
The first edition had a headline reading, “White to Challenge Menino Next Year”.
