Leads (Lede)
1.
Who: Michael and Robert Meeropol
What: Discovered that the parents were spies
When: July 1953
Where: Lower East Side apartments
Why: Cooperation with Soviet propaganda campaigns
How: F.B.I. agents arrested them
Lead: They were the most famous orphans of the cold war, only 6 and 10 years old in 1953 when their parents were executed at Sing Sing for delivering atomic-bomb secrets to the Soviet Union. Then they were whisked from an unwanted limelight to urban anonymity and eventually to suburban obscurity.
My lead: They were just young boys, when their parents were executed for delivering atomic bomb secrets to the Soviet Union during the 1950's.
Type of lead: Immediate identification
2.
Who: Stephen Fishler
What: Selling his comic book at an auction
When: February 2009
Where: Comic connect
Why: The comic is one of only 100 made and only one out of 20 that is not restored and untouched, also worth a lot of money.
How: The man found the copy of his comic in his mother's basement and held onto it without telling anyone, waiting for the value to increase.
Lead: After being hidden away for years, a copy of the original "Action Comics No. 1" comic book, featuring Superman and friends, will make a comeback -- to the tune of about $400,000, a comic expert told CNN Thursday.
My lead: Starting Friday, comic book collectors and Superman fans will have the opportunity to bid on a comic classic that is now worth about $400,000 after being hidden away for a long time.
Type of lead: Delayed identification
