3.There are 101 excuses for not writing or calling the media when you see unfair,biased or inaccurate news coverage:"I don't know enough";"I'm too busy";"My computer crashed."
(25)Communicating(communicate) with journalists makes a difference.It does not have to be perfect; not all letters to journalists need to be for publication.Even(26)aone-sentence,handwritten note to a reporter(27)canbe helpful.If you take the time to type a substantive letter,send copies of it to two or three places within the media outlet-perhaps to the reporter,his or her editor,as well as to the letters-to-the-editor department.
If media outlets get letters from a dozen people(28)raising(raise) the same issue,they will most likely publish one or two of them.So even if your letter(29)doesn't get( not get) into print,it may help another one with a similar point of view get published.Surveys of newspaper readers show that the letters page is among the most closely read parts of the paper.It's also the page policy-makers look to as a barometer of public opinion.
(30)Whenyou write to journalists,be factual,not rhetorical (带修辞色彩的).Do not personally attack them; that's more likely to convince them that they're in the right.Address them in the language that most journalists(31)are trained(train) to understand.Call on them to be responsible,professional,balanced and inclusive of diverse sources and viewpoints.
Letters(32)that/whichare intended for publication should usually be drafted more carefully.
