A·B police target graffiti 'taggers' foes of Crittenton plan to develop open land Mayor urges alternative sites be examined for development By Linda Rosencrance TAB Staff Writer ayor Thomas M. Menino has agreed to support members of the Oak Square com­ M munity who oppose plans by the Crittenton Hastings House to develop more than three ac~ of open space to create subsidiz.ed hoot_ing. Until last week, the mayor had refused to talce a stand on the issue, saying that Crittenton Hastings House had not yet provided the city with any plans for the project. He also urged Crittenton officials to discuss their pro­ posal with the community. The mayor's decision to oppose the plans comes after widespread, forceful neighborhood opposition to Crittenton's plans to build 18-20 units of affordable housing on the wooded parcel of land adjoining its IO Perthshire Road facility. ''Last Thursday I got a call from Mayor Menino say­ ing he was going to support our position to preserve the open space," said Jeanne Demers, an attorney who is the chairwoman of the Crittenton Woods Committee, HOUSE, page 33 Police officer Louis Relerford walks in front or a wall that makes the issue clear: Graffiti is a blight on the loc:al scene.

Old mattresses, chairs, sofas, tables, desks, crates and bags on top of bags of who-knows-what are left behind by last year's contingent of students, no longer wanted by the new tenants.

This time, on June 25, it’ll be to choose John Kerry’s successor. US Rep. Ed Markey, a Malden Democrat, and newcomer Gabriel Gomez, a Cohasset Republican, are the two candidates on the ballot, survivors of the April 30 primary that winnowed the fields on either side. The public’s interest in the special election – set in motion in December when Kerry was tapped as President Obama’s chief diplomat – has been sluggish by most accounts. Voter listlessness was on display on Sunday at Roxbury Community College where the candidates faced off in a forum put together by MassVOTE Elizabeth Seton Academy’s class of 2013 posed for a photo outside of the school on Thurs., May and other groups.

Date of Signature _____________________________ _____________________ Richard L. Barton Professor of Communications Associate Dean of Graduate Studies and Research Thesis Adviser Chair of Committee _____________________________ ______________________ Suzanna DeBoef Associate Professor of Political Science _____________________________ ______________________ Patrick Parsons Associate Professor of Communications _____________________________ ______________________ Ronald A. Smith Professor Emeritus of Exercise and Sport Science iii Abstract Stadium construction has occurred at record-breaking level in major metropolitan areas of the United States in the last decade. This dissertation traces media coverage of stadium construction policy throughout the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first century, focusing specifically on newspaper coverage of this issue. The hypothesis that media practitioners in smaller metropolitan areas will be more likely to privilege voices supporting new stadium construction is examined. The case study method is utilized and content analysis is employed to determine media coverage trends in major American metropolitan areas. Cincinnati and Pittsburgh are examined as small market cities, while Boston and New York are explored as larger market cities. Evidence is provided that larger markets adopt a more critical position than small market cities regarding new stadium construction in newspaper opinion content. Large market publications are similar to smaller market counterparts in providing greater opportunity for expression to pro-stadium voices.

  • Boston Neighborhood Network Dear Friends
    Transition Years 2007–2012 Boston Neighborhood Network Dear Friends “As I approach 3025 Washington Street to go to work, I picture this scene years ago when the Orange Line was running—tracks high above the street, the train rattling out of Egleston Station past a grand old building that looked like a church on the outside, but on the inside housed massive converters to power the trains,” reflects Curtis Henderson, BNN General Manager. This imposing edifice, vital to the community since 1909, was left vacant when the elevated train tracks were torn down and created a stain on the neighborhood. But today we are part of something different—a beautifully rehabilitated building that has preserved its architectural integrity and brought it into the 21st century with green technology—a building alive with learning, creating and sharing—BNN’s home, the Charles J. Beard II Media Center. Youth and seniors and everyone in between, from every corner of the city, use this state-of-the art media center to learn the latest communications technology and to create TV program- ming they share on our channels and on our website. Our mobile production truck, parked in our backyard, cruises the city covering events in every community Board of Directors and our satellite dish on the roof of the building brings down programming of interest to Bostonians. Boston Neighborhood Network News celebrated its 25th year FY 2007 – 2012 on BNN’s News and Information channel and is going stronger than ever, with web-streamed programs and a dynamic companion website. Kenan Bigby It took hard work, dedication and perseverance from people who care about the revitalization of a neighborhood, who care about bridging the digital divide and who care about preserving our first amendment rights to complete this project and we thank them all: our Board of Directors, staff, members, partners, supporters, col- Reebee Garofalo laborators and funders.
