Wellesley Townsman parent sues Boston Globe parent

The Globe actually wrote its own story about Gatehouse’s no-chance bid to put a stop to the Globe’s scheme to wipe out the Townsman’s parent company via new online websites targeting Newton, Needham, Waltham and sooner or later, Wellesley.

Management and other employees of Gatehouse are in a tizzy because the Globe has been borrowing rather liberally from the Needham Times and other pubs to fill its new websites. Bloggers and local media have been buzzing about the controversy since last month, but until now, the Globe hadn’t acknowledged the dispute to our knowledge.
