Effective August 16, I will no longer be a subscriber to The Boston Globe. I have cancelled not only home delivery of the print edition, but digital access as well. The paper’s association with China Daily is the reason why.
Whether or not the Globe’s subscriber group on Facebook was the “appropriate” place to complain, I received no reply, so I’m taking action. As I told the customer service rep on the phone, who offered me a discount, this isn’t a money decision, it’s a protest.
If I want to read the Globe, I’ll have to be one of those retired people seen sitting in the reading room at the library.
Other papers are also losing readers!
I don’t know yet if my library still gets a print copy. I’ll check. Follow-up: Yes it does.
except, the globe wont be there.
