And Dave Maynard has been doing the same thing for years.  Again, it's 
quite misleading if a newsperson says they are in one place when in reality 
they aren't in that place at all-- that's an ethical violation, such as 
when years back a reporter (I believe it was ABC's Cokie Roberts) claimed 
she was standing in front of  the White House but in fact, she was back at 
the studio. But I haven't heard Gary say he is sitting in his home in 
Massachusetts.  Gary's been a WBZ employee since 1964 and if technology 
permits him to have a nice home in a warmer climate and still do his job, 
what's the harm?  He is a commentator, and he can comment from 
anywhere.   I am glad that Boston.com told us where to send our Xmas cards 
to him, but I still fail to see the problem.
