Today I decided to read the National section. The Ortega article had a really good lede. I was interested because the headline mentioned extremism yet the lede started with a referee. By the end of the lede I was hooked into the article, which is exactly what it's supposed to do. The California University article was good, except I wanted more quotes and for the mayor to be introduced earlier and not in the last paragraph. The foster care article had a very powerful, attention-grabbing lede and had great quote placement; however, the last paragraph was too long. The last part of the quote was powerful, though.
