Herald-Dispatch Critique: Thursday, Oct. 8

The Thursday, Oct. 8 edition of The Herald-Dispatch continued the theme of being well written and featuring few issues.  There were no macro editing issues, but there were some micro editing issues as with the previous editions I have read.

Much like the other editions I have read, beginning a lead paragraph with a prepositional phrase was a reoccurring theme.  There were also instances of wordiness, ending a lead paragraph with the time element and uses of too many cliches and editorializing.

Overall, this edition was on pace with the other editions of The Herald-Dispatch that I have read.  The only issues/errors within it were comprised of micro editing issues.  It was well written and professional, just as it should be.
