A Nut Graf is used in journalism, especially for hard news. It is essentially a summary of the story. The purpose of a Nut Graph is to basically show the reader why they should care about what they are going to read and acts like a transition from the lead to the other paragraphs.
A Nut Graf is short for a nut paragraph, so it's the story in a nut. It gives the reader insight into the story through commentary, quotes, etc. It allows the reader insight into what went on, the highlights and why the story is important.
