    This AP dispatch, filed 156 years ago tonight, is simultaneously amazing for its level of reported detail on deadline, and one of the most egregious possible examples of burying the ledehttps://apnews.com/article/91fed0359cc245f0960322a5e7bac56a …

        And I don't think this jarring juxtaposition is coincidental. It's easy to get so immersed in the details ("did you hear the man say anything as he leapt out of the President's box?") you forget to properly structure the story

        So: next time you are kicking yourself for not figuring out the correct lede until after the story's out, spare a thought for AP's 1865 Washington correspondent

        I'm a feature writer, so obviously skin in the game, but it's a heck of a narrative, maybe it's intended to be just that and it's not a buried lede after all? The whole thing does bring to mind that "But what did you think of the play, Mrs. Lincoln?" joke about a missed point.

        I think back then the main idea was to tell a story (which he does brilliantly) and dispatching the news was secondary.

        Editor’s like: “You’ve got great stuff in here. Mind if I take a stab at shuffling around some....” One hour later it looks like your story got dropped in a blender. All the pieces are still there. Just... reordered.

        also makes me wonder when AP switched to double quotation marks

        Amazing to see "the president had been shot" buried in the 3rd paragraph.

        Exactly what I thought. I was only a sportswriter, but I knew the winning team and score belonged in the first paragraph. I'm not sure if the inverted triangle was the rule in the 19th century.
