Herald-Dispatch Critique: Thursday, Oct. 1

The Thursday, Oct. 1 edition of The Herald-Dispatch continued the theme of being well written and featuring few issues.  There were few, if any, macro editing issues and most were micro editing issues as with the previous editions I have read.

The most reoccurring theme I noticed in this edition was beginning a paragraph with a prepositional phrase.  I also noticed a few instances of the word "host" being used as a verb.  I also noticed a few instances of wordiness as well.

Overall, this edition of The Herald-Dispatch was similar to the previous editions I have read.  It was well written and professional, featuring minimal errors.  I have yet to experience a major macro editing issue, and I suppose that's to be expected with a newspaper like The Herald-Dispatch.
