Hundreds of Globe editors and reporters delivered Sunday’s
newspaper to subscribers because of problems with a distributor, but many of
those papers arrived later in the day.
Because reporters and editors are fast readers, many of them
read portions of Sunday’s paper, including advertising inserts and the Globe
magazine, to slow readers and subscribers whose customary time to read the
paper had passed.
In some cases, Globe staff read the paper to those whose
comprehension skills were muddled by early afternoon alcohol-consumption in
anticipation of the Patriots game with the Miami Dolphins, which was broadcast
Sunday at 1 p.m.
Globe staffers who delivered papers after church services
also offered secular interpretations of Sunday morning’s sermons and bites of
tasty hash browns, which are now served at McDonald’s around the clock as part
of the fast-food chain’s all-day breakfast menu.
