As a journalism student way back in the olden days, we were taught to put as much of "who, what, why, when and where" as possible into the first paragraph of an article.

I had to hit the link to read at the end of the entire piece that the popped perp was only injured in the shooting.

I guess I'm just a doddering old dinosauer flailing about in the modern journalistic forest preserves of life.

I am not a journalist, but I do need those “who, what, why, when and where” in the first paragraph. If not, don’t read the article.

Also, this is why I don’t read Panamanian newspapers. They never get to the immediate point...Maybe way down halfway in the article.

Life is too short. I don’t have the patience.
