This section covers editorials, letters to the
editor, opinion columns, and faux press releases on politician web sites.
Do not assume I agree with an editorial or other op-ed piece just because I
don’t publish a critique.
I also submit letters to the editor. There
are limitations of that approach, however, and they include:
-
Out of necessity, newspapers place a limit on
letter size. For example, the Beaver County Times has a limit
of 200 words. Most other newspapers have a similar limit. The
problem with the limit is that thorough discussion of a topic is tough to
do in 200 words or less, especially when trying to refute “drive-by”
assertions.
-
There is no guarantee the newspaper will
publish your letter.
-
Newspapers occasionally edit significant
content in your letter.
-
Some newspapers limit the number of your
letters they will publish in a given period of time. For example, I
believe the Beaver County Times has a limit of 12 letters per year.
I believe other papers have lower limits.
-
The papers generally provide the letter title,
and sometimes the title is misleading.
