@EnzoCreUni @NBCNews Yes, this lede answers all of the 5 W's. I believe this is an example of a summary lede. #JRM319

@snb29400 @CBSNews Yes, I agree, putting this information on social media allows for quick alerts. It also makes it easy for readers to share with others and for hard news like this, that is very important. #JRM319

@CuylerJRM I agree, this article grabs readers attentions. I think it's because the lede directly answers the 5 W's and leaves the readers wanting to know more. #JRM319

@rezmoad I like this style of profile story. Concise, detailed, and an easy read about 10 different players. It allows the reader to learn more information about different people instead of one person. #JRM319

@elliotsm1th You are right, this lede definitely answers the 5 W's. More specifically, I think this is a summary lede. #JRM319

@KCStar This is an example of soft news. It deals with entertainment and does not require a time sensitive commitment. It's a human story that is a light read, making it soft news. #JRM319

@TIME This is an example of a profile story. This story is all about Merle Bombardieri, her life, her story, and how she ended up becoming a therapist who gained a following. This profile is written with the kabob style.

@cnnbrk This is a direct example of a news source using social media for breaking news. It stats exactly what happened using the 5 W's. Using social media also allows for reader engagement. #JRM319

@ABC I think this is an example of a good lede. It tells me the Who, What, When, and Where. I know what the rest of the story will be about. #JRM319

@boazhepner @Gil_Hoffman @HonestReporting @NGOmonitor @olga_deutsch @EFischberger @mishtal As journalists, we must always stay neutral no matter how hard it is. (Unless you're writing an opinion piece). We should always double check our facts/sources for credibility so that all of our stories are as accurate as possible. #JRM319
