What type of introduction does the writer use?

We've been hearing an awful lot about ed people lately. More precisely, we've been hearing about a certain subset of mentally ed people who live on death row. The recent interest in the fate of mentally ed convicts has launched a bevy of headlines like this from the New York Times in June: "Jeb Bush Signs Bill Barring Executing the ed." On television, we've heard Ed Bradley, filling in for Dan Rather on the CBS Evening News earlier this month, refer to "ed killer Johnny Penry" and "ed criminals."
