The Perfect Diet

The article was short for a change, but it was too short. There wasn't much to dig into. The lead was strong however, laying out exactly what the story was about, and explaining the merits well. There just wasn't much to analyze however, as this is exactly what a how-to should look like.

The End of Men

The story starts off powerfully, not just in the lead, but in the paragraph before it, under the headline. It summarizes a good portion of the story, and in its own way, is a Troutman moment before the story even begins. It shoves so much information into a neat little package and shows off the main thing about the article that's so interesting. It puts right at the fron what this story is about and shows off why its important.
