Word choice and BAD journalism

Is it possible to write a good article that uses the verb "tout" twice within 5 paragraphs?

I don't think so.

Read it for yourself and see.

I pass over the sad fact that one of the two touted as a replacement for the dead congressman is the widow. Do you tout widows?
