“Man With Machete Chases After Clown Spotted Near Woods in NC”
  This is about people dressing up as clowns to try and scare adults, or lure children into the woods, specifically in North Carolina. The idea started with one person, and has wrongly spread. One man, fed up and scared, chased a clown into the woods with a machete. Authorities were aware of the issue but could not find a man fitting the qualities machete man described. It goes on to talk about an Ohio apartment complex in which clowns have overrun and the manager admonished children to stay in their apartments after curfew.
  This is very scary, yet interesting. But, it has no local relevance to people here in Louisville. It only needs to be addressed in areas where this is occurring, such as North and South Carolina or Ohio. Another critique is that it does not make the important interesting. The journalist of this article made it very intriguing, but this story does not carry a lot of relevance to a large group of people, only a niche group in the cities where this is an issue. This article isn't very important, but I do give it props for having context by including several different encounters. The underlined terms in this blog are a few of the 7 yardsticks of journalism; these yardsticks help journalists focus their writing.
