[personal] Re: [Husker] Pedersen responds to Shatel

[Mike Jaixen]

It sounds like Shatel's column was revised at some
point on Tuesday, likely after being contacted by UNL.
 In the afternoon edition, here's how that paragraph
read:

"So I stood there and waited for someone to open the
door to the athletic department of the public
institution known as the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln."

So the World-Herald and Shatel apparantly corrected
themselves on that point.  However, Pederson's other
point, that they didn't ask for comment, Shatel wrote
"Asked about the policy, Mann said it was a concern
for the safety of the athletes."  (Unless that was a
late edit to the column as well...)

So apparantly Pederson's response was partially flawed
as well.
