how do i submit an opinion piece to lansing state journal?
You can submit an opinion piece to the Lansing State Journal through its editorial submissions/contact page, which offers a “Submit a letter to the Editor” option under editorial submissions. The help page also lists the newsroom contact number as 1-800-234-1719 if you need guidance.
What to include
The clearest publicly available guidance I found is for a letter to the editor rather than a full-length op-ed. A related source says submissions should include your full name, mailing address, phone number, and email for verification, and it keeps letters to about 300 words.
Practical steps
- Go to the Lansing State Journal help/contact page and choose the editorial submission option.
- Follow the instructions on the letter submission form.
- If you’re writing a shorter letter, keep it focused on a recent issue or story and include your contact details.
Tip
If you meant a longer guest opinion or op-ed, the published guidance I found does not clearly spell out a separate public op-ed email or form for LSJ, so the safest move is to start with the editorial submission route or call the newsroom for the current process.
