In newspaper speak, to “bury a lede” is to fail to place the most important part of a news story at the beginning.
In today’s AJC, the story “Slain woman’s family: ‘We just want to see the truth'” hides its most important “new” information in the 33rd paragraph.
“At first police said that the drug buy was made by undercover police, but later they said the purchase was made by an informant.”
The possibility of a police cover-up in this case is the news story now.
