Boston Phoenix II

Posted by s woods on March 15, 2013

“As Boston After Dark, [the Phoenix] rode in on the counterculture, when the Times was the ‘Gray Lady’ and the Boston Globe often viewed (perhaps unjustly) as a repository of conventional wisdom. You could write long in the Phoenix. You could write ‘fuck’ in the Phoenix. You could make fun of the Globe and the Times. The enterprise, admittedly, was hardly pure.”
- David Edelstein on the Spirit of the Boston Phoenix
