If you've seen one black
columnist named Howard ... If you take a look at the
main
sports website of the
Boston Herald right now, you'll see a hype that reads "Manly:
No bash by the Bay."
The column, in fact, is by Howard
Bryant. Both Bryant and Manly are African-American.
Media Log reader M.L. tells me this
is the second time this has happened recently. No, it's not racism.
But it does make you wonder whether someone at One Herald Square
really does think they all look alike.
Whoever that someone is ... he or
she needs to be more careful.
