It's nice to read an article that actually summarizes the entire story first, at the top, in a few short and enjoyable paragraphs, before getting into the depth of the story.
So many articles today don't do this and to sit down and read one feels like the commitment of starting a novel. You have no idea where the story is going and the writer has put themselves on a pedestal, probably wishing they were writing a novel instead. The sentences and paragraphs begin with a lot of atmosphere and little actual narrative.
Journalism is not regular prose, and I wish more journalists would do what is being done in this piece, something that used to be a lot more common in the industry.
