Honestly the pacing and structure of NYT articles is so weird. Sometimes I read an article and after a few well structured paragraphs it seems that they just add random additional info, go down rabbit holes and just end abruptly.
As if your grandmother wants to tell you a story and weaves in random info of every participant’s relation to your family.
NYT writes for the Newspaper - and that means column inches. Articles get a space on the paper and are written so that they can be cut at different places to fit that space without major edits.
Interesting point. But I have never experienced this with other newspapers who publish the traditional articles online. And the NYT should have a higher quality than most.
