Letters guidelines

Write: Letters to the editor Milwaukee Journal Sentinel P.O. Box 371 Milwaukee, WI 53201-0371 Fax: (414) 223-5444 Email: jsedit@jrn.com

The Journal Sentinel welcomes and reads all letters. Timely, well-written, provocative opinions on topics of local interest are given first preference for publication on our opinion pages. Letters are subject to editing.

Length: Letters are generally limited to 200 words.

Identification: Name, street address and daytime phone number are required, even in email submissions. (Only name and city will be published.)

We do not publish poetry, open or anonymous letters and letters printed elsewhere.

Frequency: Each writer is limited to one published letter every two months.

Because of the volume of mail we receive, we cannot print every letter, and we do not acknowledge receipt or return submissions. If your letter is chosen for publication on our opinion pages, you will be called for verification. Submissions become the property of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and may be republished in all Journal Sentinel media.
