The story, as the intro suggests, is about a quicker system of consulting a doctor - by virtual visits which, the story says, might be funded by Medicare. Again it's more common in features. Here's one from The Australian. You've read the books, seen the films - and now it's time to dig up dirt on Fletcher Christian and the Bounty mutineers who got away. Now remember this is not a news intro - it's a feature story about research into the Bounty mutineer.
Intro writing is one of the most difficult skills for beginning journalists.
One way to get a feel for intros that work and those that don't is to read lots of newspapers and to think about how the intro was put together.
