I finally figured out where these letters are coming from. They show up in waves whenever something about the conflict between Israel and Palestine shows up in the L.A. Times. There’s clearly a Web site out there allowing visitors to write up letters and spam SoCal newspapers with them. None of them will ever run. I wonder if these folks realize they’d be better off just sending letters directly to the newspaper involved and not spamming newspaper editors across Southern California, most of whom are angrily deleting them out of their inbox.

Some of them even try to pose as “subscribers” of our publication, unaware that we’re hours away from the Los Angeles area.
