Fighting words

Being a native of Fall River, I'm used to the insults -- dangerous city, criminals, drugs, rundown, etc.

Of course these remarks about the Spindle City are always made by people who know as little about Fall River as I do the Red Sox ... not much.

These people (lots seem to come from Attleboro) don't know the true gems in Fall River, like the Portuguese restaraunts, the beautiful Victorian homes, the stunning block-long granite mills, the steep hills, the old-world traditions that contiune to… Continue

Confusion over Cookson

The job shifting, job loss or whatever one wants to call what's going on over at Cookson in Attleboro as well as its North facility, Leach & Garner, is generating lots of comment today at thesunchronicle.com.

And, rightly so, there's confusion over our page 1 story. Believe me, we are equally confused about the details.
Cookson has yet to detail exactly what it is doing. Apparently the powers that be at the British don't really make a separation when it comes to Attleboro and North .
