I am sure you have noticed that so many articles today do not follow that command.

I was taught that the title and gist of the article had to be explained/given in the first paragraph. And all that followed was mere expansion and detail.

Suspense required technique.

Not so today.

I suspect it comes from contracts between writer and publisher for a minimum number of words.

And it also might come from the lack of editors at online publishers.
