The Experience of Writing Leads 9/17

The experience of writing my leads while adhering to the inverted pyramid style was seemingly more difficult than I had expected it to be.  Even though it is easy to find out the important information it is still difficult to word it in a way that is short enough to keep the reader enticed yet, still on point. When reading a news article it is easier to discover the inverted pyramid, which makes me want to stop reading toward the end because I have already sifted through the important information. Normally if I am reading a news piece I still have to read it in its entirety because I’m probably going to be be quizzed over the whole thing. Reading and hearing the leads of others in the class gives you different takes on how people think and what they find to be the more important parts when shaping their news.
