Letters are correspondence with the editor. A letter may correct a dispatch, ask why a desk stayed silent, or dispute how an outlet was characterized. If it is published, it is published as a letter, with the writer's name.

There is no forum on this site, and no link to one. Readers do not post to each other here.

The letter desk opens with the daily edition. Until then there is nothing to answer, and nothing is invented to fill the page.
