This is a draft, please contribute if you want

As a Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) with The American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA ahima.org)
it is my duty to respectfully inform you, your readers and the government of The Republic of Korea that under no circimstances do any university, college or insititute of learning in The USA accept or present a diploma as proof of any educational accomplishment.


Besides being one akward-ass sentence, "do" s/b "does".

Also, "The USA" s/b "the USA". Well, not sure on that one, but I think so anyway.

Man, this is really dry, and kinda long. Just my two cents.

Unfortunately, very few newspapers are interested in truth or justice. They have to follow certain political lines: they are manipulated and dictated by various pressures the whole time..
A newspaper's only mandate is to sell as many copies as possible. To do this, they have to write what their readership wants to hear: reinforce comforting perceptions held by the target readership, and hold their official political line. I'm glad I'm out of that business.

I've had one letter published in the Korean papers so far, a fairly tame one.
My better ones, better written and better backed with eveidence, have recieved no attention because they have challenged the official line.
