    Letters to the editor Guidelines Do you feel strongly about a child poverty issue? Write a letter to the editor using our simple letter writing techniques, list of email addresses and examples of sample letters (family income assistance, housing, health, education, gambling etc): • All newspapers require your name, personal address and daytime telephone number. • Do not send your letter as an attachment. Use cut and paste. • Check the word length accepted by the newspaper (usually around 150 words). Longer letters may be published but could be edited in a way you do not agree with. • The brevity of letters means you can only make one or two points. Make sure your arguments are set out in a logical way. • Get someone unfamiliar with the issue to read the letter – does it make sense to that person? • Stick to the issues and avoid personal attacks (even if you are responding to a personal attack). • Try to respond to an issue as soon as possible. • Proofread your letter carefully and check your word length. • Letters can be emailed –put letter to the editor in the subject line. • If you have any questions or want a letter to the editor checked, email [email protected] Email addresses of main daily papers Letter to editor in subject line/cut and paste text Ashburton Guardian [email protected] Bay of Plenty Times [email protected] Dominion Post [email protected] Daily News [email protected] Daily Post [email protected] Gisborne Herald [email protected] Greymouth Evening Star [email protected] Hawkes Bay Today
