In a newspaper I'm reading (环球时报), there are multiple articles in which the title appears somewhere in the middle of the text. One example is:
(click for unannotated version; other examples: 美人员现身台雷达站威胁有多大 (newspaper; online) and 全球确诊超四千万,欧美疫情恶劣 and 英国放狼话逼欧盟妥协 (newspaper; not found online))
As we see in the article above, the title 菅义伟首次外访为何选东南亚 and author name 陈友骏 appear in the middle of the text, while the text starts at the top-left corner beginning with 日本……. (The electronic version is here where the title is at the top.)
I don't understand the logic behind this at all: it has taken me a long time to realize that this happens. I don't recall ever seeing this in an English-language newspaper, which makes me think there is some rationale which I'm unaware of.
Question: Why are titles sometimes placed in the middle of a newspaper article?
