LETTERS
From Issue #18
Letters to Editor
I was appalled and outraged when I read “Speak for Those
Who Can’t” [Issue 17]. The “facts” are untrue and
are presented in a misleading fashion. Some animals may be
treated inhumanely, but putting a blanket clause over the entire
fur and animal industry is unjust. Most animals are kept
humanely and euthanized before being slaughtered.

Your article “Speak for Those
Who Can’t” brought tears to my
eyes. I love animals, and reading that article made me realize
how little just saying, “I care,” actually did. I realized I had to do
more, and went immediately to the PETA website for more info.
Thanks for such an eye-opening article.

I would just like to say that your mag is the best (and I do have
a bit of experience here) I have ever read. I was on holiday in
Canada with my family and picked up your Summer 2004 issue.
I am from Glasgow, Scotland and there is nothing like this where
I live. I really think it’s great that a magazine can take into
account that not all teenagers care about whether Britney Spears
has a new haircut, and instead writes about things that are
actually important.

Hi. Usually I agree with your “Rant on Whatever” but not with
some of the stuff in your Back-to-School [2004] issue. Sara said
we should listen to our friends if they tell us we’re being a jerk
when we spend too much time with a new boyfriend. Well, I think
our friends should be a little more understanding and supportive
instead of acting selfish and spoiled.

Hey. I was flippin’ through your magazine and I came up with a
pretty cool idea. I think that your magazine should feature local
talents. Maybe have readers nominate a band, singer, comedian,
entertainer, etc. from their town who they believe deserves
recognition for their pure, raw talent. It's not everyday that small
town superstars get their face published in magazines, so I think
a lot of teens would be interested in this concept; especially if it
features someone who's from their town. Keep up the awesome
work Faze. You guys definitely have “pure, raw talent.”

Ed is the best. You should give him a lot more space to set people
straight. He knows what he’s talking about.

Editor’s note: Hey Kevin, you can find lots of Ed's wit and wisdom (and that of his sidekick Red) , right here in his own section: Ask Ed & Red.
Get involved! FAZE is always looking for creative minds!
If you've
got great article ideas, photos or illustrations we want to see them!
