3. The Boston Herald is the conservative Boston paper.

The Boston Globe in general is a very good liberal paper and John Henry is no friend of Trump. (You might be thinking of Robert Kraft, until recently owner of the Boston Patriots. He is tight with Trump.)
John Henry is a Democratic donor.
He owns the Boston Globe, the Boston Red Sox, the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Liverpool Football Club.
It is true that the Red Sox did visit the White House in 2019 after winning the 2018 World Series. Several players of color and Alex Cora then team manager and a Puerto Rican by birth, chose not to attend.
