CALL ME SNAKE

Sorry I’m a day late in filing this report but my paperboy, with whom I’ve been squabbling, decided to take Sunday off, which means I did not find out until today that the Celtics won their first round game against the Pacers on Saturday night. A 36-hour delay is, I admit, inexcusable in the news business, especially in this era of instant gratification. But I should point out that “Call Me Snake” can never match the resources of a major news gathering organization such as FSNE. What we can offer–and where we excel, I believe–is in our thoughtful, trenchant analysis, in penetrating stories that get beneath the surface. That’s why people come to us. That’s what they’ve come to depend on, and that’s not going to change.
