ATLANTA — The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Wednesday issued corrections to its recent investigation into the University of Georgia football program’s handling of sexual abuse allegations against its players and recruits.
The corrections were issued in response to a nine-page letter sent July 11 by UGA attorney Michael M. Raeber. The AJC declined the letter’s demand for the article to be retracted.
AJC editors and attorneys investigated each complaint raised by university officials in the letter and found two elements of the story that did not meet the news organization’s journalistic standards, Editor-in-Chief Leroy Chapman said in a statement.
