Writers,

Some places in need of letters:


1. DNR, lawmakers at odds over factory farm permits
http://tinyurl.com/ffr89

This article covering the debate over factory farms casts it as a 
commerce versus environment issue. A good letter would weigh in 
reminding everyone of the animal suffering on these farms.

Letter information appears on the left-hand side of this page:
http://www.siouxcityjournal.com/news_opinion/


2. Chicago Says No to Foie
http://tinyurl.com/ryymn

The LATimes is covering the foie gras issue in Chicago. It seems like 
the press is trying to cast this as an extremist "animal rights" issue. 
Potential letters could argue how common sense this is.

Send letters of under 200 words to: letters@latimes.com with name, 
address, and phone number.
