“Family’s wonder boy guides Hasbro into big time”
Something you may not be aware of is the concept of the inverted pyramid structure in newspaper articles. I learned this many, many years ago (I want to say my first experience with this was back in junior high, but that could be a faulty memory at work), and throughout the years I’ve sometimes been fortunate enough to see this approach to writing in action.
Well, today’s one of those times. A few days ago I posted a 1986 article about Hasbro. Great piece of work discussing Hasbro’s growth during the mid-eighties, but today I offer up the expanded Associated Press article. Like I said, the inverted pyramid in action!
