Winchester News invites and encourages members of the community to submit opinion pieces and letters to the editor. To submit a letter or opinion guest column for publication, please include your name and address, along with your telephone number for verification purposes. Unsigned and unverified letters and columns will not be published.

Letters to the editor are separate from our reporting and do not represent the views of Winchester News.

Winchester News reviews all pieces submitted and will not guarantee the publication of any letter or op-ed. Op-eds may not be self-promotional, advertisements or simple explanation of facts; the author should express their viewpoint and explain why they hold that viewpoint. Winchester News reserves the right to deny publication of all or part of a submission for reasons such as the use of derogatory or threatening language, personal attacks, hearsay, factually untrue content, or libel. Winchester News does not run letters that are obvious letter-writing campaigns. Submissions from the same writer may be limited to one a month.

The quality and relevance of the piece to the community are also factors taken into consideration when determining whether or not to publish a letter or an op-ed. 

The opinion article will be edited for length, clarity, libel issues and good taste, in conversation with the writer, ensuring that the piece remains true to the writer’s voice while also meeting Winchester News’ criteria and conforming to Winchester News’ style. Winchester News tries to present a variety of opinions and may delay or rearrange publication of op-eds to create a diverse opinions section. All op-eds, including column pieces, express the opinions of only the signed author(s). 

Letters to the editor and op-eds can be submitted via email to editor@winchesternews.org or to 26 Dunster Lane.
