Herald-Dispatch Critique: Thursday, Oct. 29

The Thursday, Oct. 9 edition of The Herald-Dispatch was a professionally written, relatively error free written newspaper that continued the trend of the issues I have critiqued previously.  There were no macro-editing issues and it only featured micro-editing issues.

Some common, reoccurring issues were beginning a lead paragraph with a prepositional phrase, ending the lead paragraph with the time element, occasional wordiness, cliches and editorializing.  There was also an issue of a story or two being too long.

All in all, this edition was on par with the previous editions I have read and continued many of the same themes.  Outside of the micro-editing issues mentioned, it was a clean issue.
