3. Writing a Letter to
the Editor
A
letter to the editor is one of the best ways to get an
unfiltered message about a particular issue out to the
community. The best letters are generally brief, to the point,

letter to the editor on the editorial page of the paper and many
newspapers also recommend that you send your letter by fax or
E-mail. LEARN MORE...
