Reply #3: The local media certainly did not rush to cover the event.

While the Globe had the time to post a vacuous paper about Senator Browm amd how he was playing in the big league now,

This is all they could report about the town hall meeting.

Afghan war dominates Kerry meeting


ietnam veteran Bonnie Gorman of Quincy stood up yesterday in Faneuil Hall and implored US Senator John F. Kerry to work to bring American troops home from Afghanistan.

“It has been 10 years of war … The military is exhausted,’’ said Gorman, 65, whose brother died in Vietnam, and whose nephew is serving in the military. “We want to see our troops out of Afghanistan… . Do it now.’’

Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said he supports President Obama’s plan to begin bringing home troops in July, but cautioned that withdrawal may not be swift nor simple.

“I, too, want those troops home,’’ said Kerry, who said he will soon travel to Afghanistan. “I think we’re keeping faith in the effort to do due diligence, in order to really look carefully at how to extricate from Afghanistan.’’

The war in Afghanistan and the killing of Osama bin Laden by Navy SEALs in Pakistan dominated the town hall meeting held yesterday by the senator. The two-hour session drew about 250 people, including representatives of veterans, labor, and immigrant groups, and also touched on topics ranging from the conflict in the Sudan to closing corporate tax loopholes to the 2012 election.

It is still unclear whether any of the two articles made the print version. Well, it is the same Globe who, a few weeks ago, was complaining Senator Kerry did not have town hall meeting. I know Faneuil Hall is far from Morissey Blvd, but what will it take for them to cover these events?
