For those who don't really care to read what I have to say, but is interested in sharing with me you story about the time you were discriminated against because of your age, check out the bold text.

So I had this brilliant idea for a story to write for my final project for reporting for mass media class: age discrimination against young people. We had to write a query letter, that is due today, for a publication to write this story. Well, I don't know who I would write it for. I was hoping there was a national publication for 18-29 year olds that dealt with issues that affect 20somethings such as the quarterlife crisis, etc. Well, I didn't find it. If I don't get this query letter done today, I don't get the 10 points, which is okay. However, I still need to do it.

Does anyone know a good publication where I can get this published?

As of this semester in university I'm a freelance writer, and for my final project in my reporting for mass media I want to do a story about age discrimination against young people (preferably amongst twenty-somethings). So, I'm calling for a little help from my friends. Has there ever been something that you tried to do such as buy a house, a car, or anything like that, but was turned down because of your age? If you are willing to share your story and be interviewed about it, send me an e-mail at soupytwist616@gmail.com with a description of what happened with contact information (including a phone number). Your help will be greatly appreciated!
