The problem with Letters to the Editor is many fold. There is never enough space for every letter, the wording is cut down to 300 words (on average) and then there's the problem with the editor. Why does the editor get to choose who's letter is published and who's isn't and how do we know that the editor isn't biased toward one way or another?

So findawish.com is opening the flood gates and is hoping for a few drops. While we will still reject some articles, you'll know that we will put your reasonable article online.

We aren't biased and will post all sides as long as the letter is reasonable. We may call your letter stupid...but we will post it anyway.

Welcome to findawish.com: Letters to the Editor beta site It has long been known that newspapers suck. Let's face it...you have some know it all who tells you what they want you to hear, in a limited space, in order to sell newspaper ads. How many times have you wanted to reach through an article and let the author have a piece of your mind? All fired up, you write a great letter and let them have it, only to find that they won't accept it. Let them have it; we have provided a space for the world to see. Our online articles draw a respectable amount [number] of hits per day. We'll do our best with this beta site to get your message into the public's eye and (if nothing else) you'll get some therapy from writing a good letter and knowing someone is listening. Every, and we do mean EVERY, editor we have ever spoken with has told us that they do not believe controversy sells newspapers. They [who are they saying this] say it's a myth. They are lying. We see it in our own articles. Of course we write more articles of disagreement because of readership. We truly disagree and are passionate about it. Agree or disagree, defend a friend, family member, stranger or yourself; we want your articles. Let us have it. It's this simple: 1. Write a letter to any editor. 2. Get rejected by the newspaper (we'll accept your letter even if it was published). 3. Get ticked off. 4. Modify your letter (if needed) 5. Post it with us and get your article accepted. (the easy part) 6. Read your letter online and listen to others speak out against it.
