Well, it wasn't really an entire letter.  It's just that in my
last package of American clippings (sent in January), I included,
as usual, a short letter.  In one paragraph I questioned tentatively
their comments about the k.d. lang affair, as I got the impression
they did not understand the situation fully.

No, they didn't comment about it, but then they rarely comment
about anything I tell them.  It really doesn't bother me.  I don't
expect everything I write them to make its way into print.  Sometimes
they'll have a news story or a quote that is clearly based on 
something I told them, and they credit me.  That's good enough
for me.  Quite a few times I've sent them news items about radio
play which they have printed, but with slight errors.  I would
dutifully correct the error in my next letter to them, but
they've never printed a correction.  In these cases I really
wouldn't expect them to.
