MOST letters are edited for newspaper style and length. We prefer to have letters submitted in typed or electronically transmitted form. However, we will accept handwritten letters, providing the handwriting is legible. If you are sending handwritten letters by fax, please be sure the writing is dark enough to transmit clearly. What you should know about letters to the editor We read every letter we receive.
Every letter gets equal consideration.
Letters picked for publication are acknowledged quickly. You'll be contacted either by phone, electronic mail or by return mail. If it's published, your letter probably will appear in the daily or Sunday Argus Leader within two weeks after we receive it. We strive for balance, but there are times when we may only receive letters on one side of an issue. If your opinion differs from those you see printed, write and give us your perspective.
