[Avoid using language like ‘last week.’ I’m referring to the SEO lede // I feel like this story needs to be framed slightly different. The headline and lede are kinda old news. Yes, we do have new footage, but i think we should frame around the new and exclusive information we have. Like ‘Residents ‘Increasingly Worried’ About Unidentified Drones Swarming State’s Skies’]
