    But every week readers complain that they find it hard to find specific contact information for The Post either in print or online. They don’t always want to complain; sometimes they want to offer story tips, more information for a continuing story or simply a compliment.

    Yet there is no central place in the paper that tells readers how to get in touch with a section, a reporter or an editor, where to send a news release, where to request a correction, how to handle a pesky delivery problem.
