In the article, the author uses the inverted pyramid style of writing. Beginning with the most significant parts of the story, with the less interesting parts following. The writer relates the entire story to us with the title, "Yes, The Chinese Army is Spying on You". Then as the article goes on readers realize that it's one man and he's spying on large companies. So using this technique the author grabs are attention but the story is not as interesting as it seems.
Q: What truth does this article convey? What truths are omitted? Is the hyperbolic cover matched by an investigative journalism piece worthy of the hype?
A: The truth the article conveys is that one man in China is hacking into the computers of large companies. The truth omitted is that the whole Chinese army is spying on all of us. The cover is not matched with the story inside. The cover gives us the idea that there is more to the story than there actually is and that is actually affects every single one of us.
