From around the papers and blogs:

  • That Scorsese movie that couldn’t be filmed at the old Worcester State Hospital because of the construction that was going to be in full swing by now? Yeah, Medfield got it instead. And Brendan Melican says that Rep. Vincent Pedone’s quotes about a hospital being more important and valuable than a movie are “describing…the exact opposite of investment, it’s a divestment.”
  • Mike B (and others) got arrested; he talks about the experience with Melican on this week’s 508. The pair also talk about tennis courts vs. the Antiquarian Society, and Joff Smith vs. Dr. Dre. vs. Thomas Jefferson.
  • The Great Worcester Salary Debate of 2008 rages. And rages. And rages.
  • Bill Randell gets some needed answers to his questions on the airport.
  • And The Phoenix’s Adam Reilly suggests that a recent New York Times board move could have longterm implications for the ownership and health of the Boston Globe, and thus the Telegram & Gazette.
