Gov. Dave Heineman's office suspended a few principles of press freedom on Thursday when it banned Daily Nebraskan reporters from attending the governor's press conferences at the State Capitol.

I was dismayed to read the leading story of Thursday's Daily Nebraskan about Timothy Haverkamp ("Under the Radar," Thursday). It seemed to me to be just the sort of irresponsible journalism that this country does not need. While I cannot pretend to know Miss Albin's motives in writing the piece, it seems to me to be just the sort of article tailor-made to damage a human being's life. (0) comments
