Letters to the Editor
How to express your opinion:
1. Select the publication: local newspaper, even the freebie ones, will take LTEs. Some magazines,too.
2. Check the guidelines for length, what info you need to provide, how to submit (whether copying and pasting into an onsite form or sending via email).
3. Double check your word count before submitting.
4. Look over letters published in that pub for style.
5. Refer to the article you are replying to at the top.
6. Get to the point. Don't defame anyone. Stick to facts.
7. You can bring up why this topic affects you.
8. Have someone look it over for typos, etc.
