This week we discussed spot and follow. I looked at a Pioneer Press article about Congress passing an amendment to require photo IDs when voting this fall.
The first lead, which ran early Wednesday, focused on the hard facts, that the bill passed with an 8-6 vote. A later lead was directed more towards Minnesota and what the state will have to decide on.
The updated version of the story presented more detail about what the state of Minnesota was doing with the issue. I think the later article presented the Minnesota legislature's response to the Congressional actions earlier in the day, and can be seen clearly in the choice of quotes and text in the article.
