Dan Shaughnessy of The Boston Globe shoots down Wednesday the quote from the Boston Bruins executive vice president — and son of the owner — that he reviews all articles in the Globe business section about him.
“Jacobs told Gonzalez, ‘When I do a story with the Boston business section of the Globe, if I do a real estate story . . . or if I do a story with [Kevin] Dupont that might be controversial . . . the Globe will show me the story so that they avoid any confrontations post-publication.’
“Globe business editor Shirley Leung and our intrepid Dupont categorically denied Charlie’s statement (‘ludicrous,’ said Dupont). Turns out Charlie meant to say that sometimes the Globe will call him and read his quotes back to him for accuracy. When reached for comment, Jacobs acknowledged, ‘I don’t see them [Globe articles]. I’ve never had a story in my hand. I’ve never had Kevin call me. Kevin never ran a story by me.’
“Whew. For a minute there I was worried.”
