This week's article was from the National Post.
This article is about the now infamous handball by French forward Thierry Henry, that lead the French national soccer team to victory over the Republic of Ireland.
Personally, I like the way this story is written. It does a good job presenting all of the necessary background for the story without in a very succinct way. Like all newspaper stories, it has the very familiar inverted pyramid structure. Also, I think with a story like this, it would be easy to add an personal opinion. Interestingly, instead of adding his own opinion, he uses sources from other papers and uses their opinions to write his story.
One other thing I liked about this story is how the story was linked to a video broadcast of this story from Global News. This convergence of media gave that story another dimension adding sound and video.
