Los Angeles Times
Op-Ed and Opinion pages.
We expect submissions to be offered exclusively to the
Los Angeles Times; we do not generally publish things that have already
appeared elsewhere. If you have submitted your piece to more than one media
outlet, or if it has already appeared online or in print, please let us know
immediately.
Also, if you have any potential conflict of interest,
please let us know that immediately. Potential conflicts might include having
been paid by a third party to write the piece or writing it at someone else’s
direction, having any kind of financial interest in the subject you are writing
about or working for an organization that has a financial interest in the
subject. If you have a conflict of interest it does not automatically mean that
we would reject your piece, but we may disclose the conflict in the text or the
author’s bio.
It is preferred that the text of the article be submitted
in the body of the email message. Attachments may not be viewed for security
reasons. Be sure to include day and evening telephone numbers and a one-line
biography of the writer. The typical length of a Times’ op-ed article is
750-850 words.
We regret that the volume of submissions means that we
cannot respond individually to each article, nor can we provide feedback to
proposals or queries. If we are interested in publishing your submitted
article, you will hear from a Times editor within three business days. If you
haven’t received a response in three business days, you can consider that the
piece has been declined and you are free to submit it elsewhere.
Thank you for your interest in the Los Angeles Times.
