People used to know how to make a statement then explain it. Now, everyone is so starved for personal attention they want to explain their answers before ever giving the answer.

That was (once upon a time) a key lesson in good writing —

1) Tell people what you are going to tell them.
2) Tell them the details.
3) Tell them what it was that you just told them.

Almost no one seems to do that now.
