20/2018 VISION: REVISITING OUR AWESOME HELLISH YEAR ONE FINAL TIME

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted December 26, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Dear Reader, NEWS+OPINIONS

No outlet can cover everything. It’s not worth trying. But in reading back through several hundred pieces that we published in the past 12 months, I’m more than satisfied to say that we hit hard and often on a range of topics

’18 AND LIFE TO GO: OUR YEAR IN ALTERNATIVE MASS MEDIA

Written by DIG STAFF Posted December 19, 2018 Filed Under: Analysis, Media Farm, News, NEWS+OPINIONS

It’s anybody’s guess why cheeseball mainstream outlets tend to ignore topics such as poverty, surveillance, and climate change. Whatever the reason, we don’t spend too much time worrying about them; as you’ll see below, we had our hands full all year covering the stuff that they missed.

A HARD LOOK AT THE MASS POLS WHO COULD BE NEXT TO LOSE A PRESIDENTIAL BID

Written by PATRICK COCHRAN Posted November 21, 2018 Filed Under: Analysis, News, NEWS+OPINIONS

A potentially enormous field is materializing, with a solid chunk of that field coming from Mass—politicians who have cultivated long, impressive resumes, undoubtedly with at least a small, lingering notion that they could be president of the United States.

POST-ELECTION WINNERS AND LOSERS

Written by PATRICK COCHRAN Posted November 13, 2018 Filed Under: News, NEWS+OPINIONS

“Voters sent a very clear signal today that our criminal justice system is not working for too many people and it’s time for a change."

THIS IS IT: YOUR 2018 ELECTION GUIDE, FROM THE BIG FEDERAL PICTURE TO THE RIPPLE IMPACT IN MASS

Written by PATRICK COCHRAN Posted November 1, 2018 Filed Under: Analysis, News, NEWS+OPINIONS

MASS IMPACT: THE POST-KAVANAUGH STENCH IN BAY STATE ELECTIONS

Written by PATRICK COCHRAN Posted October 9, 2018 Filed Under: News, NEWS+OPINIONS

Both Diehl and Gonzalez trail the incumbents they’re chasing by significant margins. Democrats are hoping an anti-Trump wave can help sweep the latter into the corner office, while it appears the GOP’s leading priority is damaging the presidential prospects of Warren.

DIEHL FOR SENATE LAWN SIGNS, TRANSLATED

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted October 2, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Dear Reader

From the sheer number of voters who actually pulled for Trump in 2016, to more anecdotal horrors such as bumper stickers that pose blatant threats to liberals, it’s hardly friendly territory for a person who, say, doesn’t masturbate to the idea of families getting separated at the border.

NATIONAL WIRE: HOUSE CHIP RENEWAL UNLIKELY TO PASS SENATE

Written by ANDREA SEARS Posted November 6, 2017 Filed Under: News, NEWS+OPINIONS

The Republican bill that passed the House would balance increased costs by slashing funding for vital public health services and denying healthcare to pregnant women and children while billing issues are resolved.
