The editorial said, "We expect to hear from you . . . when you think we're headed in the wrong direction."

But can you please avoid placating the readers who complain constantly about the length of articles? If anyone wants an encapsulated news story, the Express is simply a newsstand away.

Report the news. Use fewer adjectives. Save your opinions for the editorial pages.

Understand that neither longevity nor size guarantees survival. Good luck.
