TMI in the AM

Dear Boston.com,

One of our greatest pleasures is breakfast. Sitting down with a glass of orange juice and a bowl of cereal, listening to the dulcet tones of NPR and checking Boston.com for the local news is a part of our routine. However, we would have done well to avoid you as we ate breakfast this morning. Why?

BECAUSE YOU PUT A PICTURE OF A GIANT COLON ON YOUR FRONT PAGE.

And there’s a woman walking through the colon riddled with cancerous polyps. In the morning, while we are sitting down to sip our coffee and prepare for the torturous hours separating us from the weekend. Couldn’t you put a cute picture of a puppy up there? A picture of Clay Buchholz, perhaps. Even Tom Menino would have been preferable. Why a cancerous colon, Boston.com? Why?

I mean, the Herald mentioned urinating soccer players, but they didn’t put pictures of that up there. When the Herald shows more restraint…

You owe us a bowl of cereal.

Best,
Boston Daily
