When reading a newspaper, I prefer The Old Man and the Sea style. It's easier to get through the paper. Since I subscribe to 4 right now, it can be very time consuming.

I also wish we had the old style journalism that presented who, what, when & where in the first paragraph. Why was the rest of the article.

That’s the old style I was taught in the journalism class I took at Michigan in 1970. Also “just the facts”, different papers had different slants in what they chose to print and/or stress, but editorializing was limited to the editorial page.
