23. I'm working on letters to editors customized for specific outlets.

Sending the same letter to multiple outlets is a "no no" so I need to find specific bits of bullshit coverage to create custom versions.

I wish I wrote faster, but I have key points and will be sending a couple based on today's crappy coverage, starting with my own Seattle Times. I will send a couple more each day to different outlets highlighting their crappy coverage.

Hope many others are as pissed and are doing the same.
