Howard Pousner Features Editor The Atlanta Journal-Constitution 72 Marietta Street NW Atlanta, GA 30303 Dear Mr. Pousner: Let’s face it, college students are not only at the prime of their lives, but they are the prime audience of the media. They are an influential group and on the brink of becoming our future. With this in mind, Zine Publishing has once again taken on another market-breaking project, this time it’s a magazine targeted at college students. The magazine, Pong!, is set to be released nationwide on February 2. The monthly magazine will cover the latest college trends ranging from music, fashion, college sports, nightlife, dating and sex advice, and career advice. Each month the magazine will visit a new college campus and make it the feature of the issue. Articles will cover an in-depth look at the school’s culture, both academically and socially. Pong!’s first issue will feature 2008 BCS Bowl Champions Auburn University. The purpose of this letter is to give you the exclusive chance to publish this story. The Atlanta area is home to many colleges and universities and is in close proximity to many more, including the first issue’s featured school, Auburn Univeristy. It is also a hot spot for recent graduates entering the job market. This article is sure to be of interest to this large population of your readers. I have chosen to offer you this story first because of the AJC’s outstanding reputation and circulation. Know that I am available to you if you have any questions or need further information regarding the publication. I can also be of assistance in setting up any necessary interviews. If you chose to pass on this opportunity, I ask that you do so in a timely manner so that I may offer it to other publications. I will contact you by the end of the week for confirmation. Thank you for your time and support.
Sincerely,
Lianne N. Lopez-Cepero Publicist
