Middleborough held two votes yesterday, but you wouldn't know it from reading the Globe

Middleborough goes 'all in' is the lead story in the paper and yet never mentions that voters actually voted against the casino in a, granted, non-binding, voice vote. The Herald does note the voice vote in its story.

The Outraged Liberal is confused:

... I've scoured the lead story in the Paper of Record three times for a mention of what I've read in The Herald, on Blue Mass Group and in Media Nation -- namely that right after voting 2-1 to approve the deal, those left at the high school held a non-binding vote turning thumbs down on casinos in general.

What gives Metro Editor Brian McGrory? Why is there a paragraph in the online version but not in the dead tree version? Is everyone else wrong and the Globe correct? Or are you planning a major takeout follow-up on Monday? ...
