Hundreds of thousands of people read editorials, and so it is important to sound eloquent, intelligent and clear with your message. In most cases, you will need to send your name, address and phone number for verification, and most editorials should be no more than 200-400 words. It's great to use this as a working-meeting project- have everyone write letters and then send them off to the local media. See the information on the following pages to write to a newspaper near you!
