Reporting worth supporting
CommonWealth
magazine helped
expose the state’s
Probation Department as a
patronage haven in
February 2010 with "All in the Family," a
story by Bruce Mohl and Jack
Sullivan that focused on jobs in the department going
to applicants who were well-connected. "All in the Family" was one of
many articles CommonWealth Magazine has written (both online and in
print) covering the political free-for-all for control of the agency
between the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. The
coverage, along with stories by the Boston Globe Spotlight Team, were
cited by Governor Patrick as cause for an independent inquiry into the
department. For a rundown of our coverage of the Probation Department
and issues of nepotism, please click here.
