Why it matters

The stakes turn on whether readers accept that Mexico began sending 1,500 more troops to the western state of Michoacan on Thursday. That point shapes the political meaning of the story.

Common ground

The clearest point to anchor on is this: Mexico began sending 1,500 more troops to the western state of Michoacan on Thursday.
