excuse me while I vomit

Wait...so, in Globe-land, accepting any piece of swag that costs over $5 is unethical, but blowing Joe Pesaturo for years and then taking a flack job at the MTA is fair play?

Well, he never really asked the truly tough questions then - he ain't gonna answer them now!

Uneasy about the whole conflict of interest thing

Aaron Reed expresses discomfort about the whole thing.

Well, at least the Globe took him off this story.
