Policy: The Vail Daily accepts letters to the editor that are 300 words or less. Column submissions should be 600 words or less. Letters must include the author’s name, hometown, affiliation (if any) and phone number (for verification purposes only). The decision to print any submission is at the discretion of the editor. All letters are edited for style, grammar and clarity. Claims made in letters have to be supported by facts and must cite sources as needed. Form letters, open letters to governing bodies and letters considered libelous, obscene or in bad taste will not be printed, nor will letters containing personal attacks. Frequent letter writers are limited to having one letter run a month to keep the conversation fresh. There is also an emphasis on keeping the focus in the letters section on local issues.
