Dear Sir,

I am a regular reader of your renowned newspaper, having a sincere appreciation for the manner in which you treat the vast variety of subjects of common interest that you deal with. But, while I commend your widespread and balanced coverage of issues, I am unable to overlook the shortcomings that mar some of your presentations. The shortcomings are particularly glaring in the articles that appear in the weekly ‘Education section and in the notes and reports of the ‘Business and Industry section.

It may be argued that the articles in these sections are contributed by freelance writers who are not obligated to your newspaper, but I wonder how such an argument can be stretched to account for the confusion that the articles create insensible and thoughtful readers. The contents of some of the articles are so nonsensical that they serve only to affront the readers’ intelligence and to irritate it.

The articles, I believe, maybe made readable if their contents are properly edited, and their ideas skillfully reorganized. Obviously, these are not being done, and from what one gets to read, it seems as though the articles are published as they are received, without their contents being vetted even cursorily.

I wish you realized the damage the poor presentations in your newspaper could inflict on its popularity and reputation and hope that you will place more emphasis on quality, which is necessary to retain readers’ interest in your newspaper.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully
