How To Submit A Letter To The Editor

Deadline for letters is noon Wednesday. Writers are limited to two letters per month, with no more than one letter per week.

Letters to the Editor that are mailed or hand delivered must be signed and dated. All letters must include the writer’s phone number and a street address for confirmation. Addresses and phone numbers are not published.

There is a 500-word limit on letters except Thank You letters and letters of political endorsement, which are limited to 300 words. Longer letters will be returned for editing, and must be resubmitted to meet deadline.

Mail letters to Editor c/o The Newtown Bee, 5 Church Hill Road, Newtown CT 06470, or e-mail them to editor@thebee.com with Letter to the Editor in the Subject line.

The Editor reserves the right to reject or edit any letter, and The Bee does not vouch for the accuracy or any of the assertions made in letters to the editor. NOTE: The opinions expressed in letters are those of the writer and do not reflect the position of The Newtown Bee.

All letters received for publication in the print edition of The Newtown Bee will be also published online at newtownbee.com each week concurrent with the publication of that week’s newspaper.
