Who Is That Trying To Buy The Globe?

The Boston Globe profiled one of its potential new owners, California-based buyout firm Platinum Equity and its CEO and founder Tom Gores. There is something familiar about the photo of Gores in the Globe piece. Universal Hub notes that Dan Kennedy compared him to Tony Manero. Bostonist thinks he has a blatant Wayne Newton vibe. He might just be trying to sell us a used car. You decide.
