About the Yankee

So, first things first – my name is Ted McEnroe, and I am the Director of Public Relations for the Boston Foundation. Until mid-2011, I was the Director of Digital Media for New England Cable News. NECN, as you might call it. (But please pronounce it “N-E-C-N”, not “NECK-IN”. )

After nearly two decades in news (television and for the last four years, online), I moved to the world of philanthropy to both satisfy my desires for new adventures and to try to get back into what drew me to journalism in the first place – the desire to make a difference.

But the blog isn’t really designed to be either a reflection of the Boston Foundation and its work. it is my voice – mine alone – and will no doubt be a mix of personal reflections on my work, life and world as a parent of a two-year-old, and it is a place to share those things that I find interesting… across the spectrum.

So to be clear: the views, opinions and all that good stuff posted on this blog are my views alone, and not those of my employers or anyone else. Just me. You can, however, use, repost,  show highlights, and comment with or without the express written consent of Major League Baseball.
