I'll help you get it going but you'll have to start it. Write to the publishers of USA today and report back the response and the email address the reply came from. Then, I will find as many posts as I can in the Amazon forums where people are asking about USA Today and provide them with the email address so that they can write in as well.

A couple of things I believe helped (whether it's true or not) is that I was already a subscriber to the Sunday paper and was able to use my account to make first contact. Also, the fact that the New York Times jumped on board from the start makes for good competition.

Here's my original email to them:

comment: I own an Amazon Kindle. I've notice that owners are able to subscribe to a Kindle version of the New York Times but not the Los Angeles Times. I am currently a Sunday only subscriber and part of the reason for that is dealing with the enormous amounts of paper a daily subscription would entail. Currently I access the daily paper via my laptop or the mobile version through the Kindle browser but I would love to have it delivered to my Kindle. If the Los Angeles Times offered a Kindle version, I would subscribe to it in a heartbeat. Thanks.
