Herald-Dispatch Critique: Thursday, Sept. 17

The Thursday, Sept. 17 edition of The Herald-Dispatch was, from my vantage point, better written overall than the week prior.  There were minimal errors and nothing too serious.  Most, if not all, of the errors I discovered were micro editing issues.  

The most reoccurring issues I found were wordiness and ending a lead paragraph with the time element.  I also caught a few examples of beginning a paragraph with a prepositional phrase, which I've been caught doing myself.  

Overall, it was very well written and professional, aside from the select few examples mentioned previously.
