Stolen FROM the newspaper? Do you mean stolen BY the newspaper? If the latter, you need to write a real letter and ask for an apology. If you have sustained money losses or the paper has profited from the misuse of your material, you might want to consult a lawyer about a possible lawsuit. This would require establishing a lot of facts including your right to the material and the newspaper's bad conduct and the resulting financial harm.
