J.
Edward Pawlick (27 April 1927, New York City – 7 October 2007, Weston, Massachusetts) was a Massachusetts lawyer, publisher and anti-gay activist. In 1972 Pawlick started Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly which he sold to his daughter, Susan P.
Hall, in the 1990s.
She developed the paper into a chain of 14 papers, including Lawyers Weekly USA, which has national distribution.
The papers were sold to Dolan Media in 2004 for an undisclosed sum, estimated to be over $10 million.In 1998 Pawlick launched the conservative Massachusetts News, first as a website and then also as a hardcopy newspaper.
He used the newspaper to express his right-wing philosophy.
For several years, it was distributed free of charge monthly to a targeted audience in Massachusetts and surrounding areas.
It gained popularity amongst conservatives for its exposés on state corruption, the perceived inequities of the state probate court, as well as anti-abortion and anti-gay causes.
At the same time, Pawlick was producing and distributing pamphlets promoting his philosophy, with particular emphasis on his opposition to gay and lesbian rights.
