Lots and lots of tips! How to submit an op-ed

http://www.dukenews.duke.edu/duke_community/oped.html

Ignore the last tip - "Here's a wild guess: You're hoping to publish your article in The New York Times, with The Washington Post andThe Wall Street Journal as backups. Well, welcome to the club. These and other national publications, such as Newsweek and USA Today, receive a staggering number of submissions, the overwhelming majority of which are rejected. You have a better shot at regional newspapers and, especially, at local papers, which almost always give preference to writers from the local area."


Go big or go home, CMC.
