Who is the proper person at the Globe unto whom we can/should voice our   
discontent?  How should we voice our discontent?

A. e-mail?
B. snail-mail?
C. phone?
D. all of the above?

Somebody perhaps should compile a tidy list of the more egregious errata   
for presentation to the complaint-meister at the Globe-haus.  If we're   
going to complain, then we'd better be very correct or they'll dismiss   
us.

If the "inaccuracies" in her column are frequent and serious, it would   
seem likely that somebody, somewhere, somehow would have pointed them out   
to her on one or more occasions.  If they did, then she's ignoring them.   
 If not, then the majority of the readers apparently just don't care.

As a "News Professional" with a supposed interest in Radio/TV - wouldn't   
it seem "logical" that she would (should?) be a "subscriber" to this   
newsgroup?  As a person formerly in radio, but now working in Computers,   
I had little difficulty finding out about this newsgroup (and others) -   
surely a Boston newspaper reporter with a "nose for news" and an Internet   
connection can do the same.

"Quotes" are either for emphasis and/or sarcasm - your choice.
