Failing Journalism 101

WWMT again, this time with a mystery headline:

Broncos Roll, West sets NCAA Record

Go on, read the story. I’ll wait.

While I’m waiting, I’ll sit here repeating “who what when where why how” as a mantra.

OK, you’re back? Great.

Who? Brandon West.
What? Set an NCAA record.

The obvious follow-up question, one that I’m sure all the readers want to know the answer to, is, “What record did Brandon West break?”

Is that in the story anywhere? Of course not.
