Talk:Poison pen letter

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is not an informative article. The only useful part of it is the defintion. The rest can easily be discovered intuitively. Rintrah 08:16, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] TEXT

I thought poison pen referred to the use of letters cut out from magazines and newspapers, like you often see in cliche ransom notes, etc...i thought that was what "poison pen" was...more of a font than the focus of the letter itself. is there a different name for this?--Atticus2020 07:06, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Excision

The text below was in the article uncited, and, while nice pop psychology, hardly indisputable. I have therefore removed it.

'The subliminal purpose, however, is to rectify a perceived wrong. Thus, from a psychological point of view, they reveal more truth about the writer than about the recipient.'
