Dear [recipient's name]:

I have subscribed to your daily newspaper for almost 15 years. In the past year, the content has gotten progressively worse. I have been displeased with the thoroughness of the articles and the selection of content. Also, at times some of the articles have been inappropriate. Unless I see an improvement in content quality, I will most likely discontinue my subscription. I regret that I must consider this, as I had enjoyed receiving your newspaper for so many years.

If you would like to discuss this with me, feel free to call me at the phone number listed at the top of this letter. I truly hope that the newspaper will improve, such that I can continue as a longtime subscriber. Thank you for your time and for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

 

[Signature]
