Okay, so this is ... fun. A friend pointed out to me - and I confirmed by watching myself - that the only three local institutions to obtain a plug where Michael's, 10 Center St., and the Phoenix Room, all three properties belonging to Mr. Karp's Newburyport Development.
I'm not really sure what the connection is between Dirty Water, NESN and Karp. But Dirty Water did a similar piece on NED's Cambridgeside Galleria last year.

Which sort of takes me back to "It's a Wonderful Life." How would life be different around these parts if Karp had bought the Sox? Would he still have had an interest in owning half of the city?
