参考范文:
Dear Sir /Madam,
I am writing to you to say something about your plans to change your newspaper's style and content.
Although I aGREe with the idea of being positive and reporting“good”news,I am not quite sure that it is so easy to define good news.What is good to one person may be bad to another.And as for your proposal to carry only good news in the main story on the front page,this is funny.The main story should report the most important event of the day,good or bad.
I don't want any more sports news as there is too much in the paper already.I like to read what someone else thinks as this helps me decide which films to see or books to read.Your editorials should continue as they are,giving all the arguments different points of view on the issue under discussion.
I'm all in favour of a new cartoon page and Jokes of the Day.
Yours sincerely,
