All the major networks have "their guys" who get the footage and provide the coverage to the affiliates. Boston is a big market, but it's not Chigago, or NYC or LA or even DC. It's "second tier" sizewise, so it doesn't always get those fun gigs. Same with the papers--the Globe is owned by the NYT, and the Herald is hooked up with some scumbags--the Murdoch crowd or some such. When they were there, covering him he likely didn't whip that speech out, or the ones covering it 'missed' the DP speech.

I'll be honest, when I first heard him give that speech, I knew that it really bugged me for some reason, but I did not know why. Now I do. I'd heard it before...
