It’s a small quibble. But it’s a routine small quibble worth pointing out now and then, i.e., political stories in the Globe written completely from the lopsided perspective of excitable progressives, with little or no outside political perspective. Example from today’s Globe: “‘I’m jealous.’ For Wu fans, a mounting case of Mamdani envy.” Another recent example: “Young progressive candidates are energizing Democrats nationwide. It’s giving some Massachusetts liberals serious FOMO.” And another: “Campbell has sued Trump more than 50 times. Democrats say they hear ‘a future governor or senator.’”

Ok, ok. I know. The Globe’s capable of running stories about the non-progressive political species inhabiting our dear deep-blue state, such as this smart piece from Chris Van Buskirk: “Massachusetts’ southeastern corner is turning into a Republican ‘hotbed.’” But the paper too often comes across as regularly fawning over and pandering to progressives, heaping focus on a political group that makes up only a faction of a party that represents just 25 percent of enrolled voters in Massachusetts. … Maybe one day the Globe will publish a story with the headline: “For most voters, a mounting case of non-Wu and Mamdani envy.” But don’t hold your breath.
