Joe P Scapegoat?

<p>Interesting. From an editorial by John Ziegler:</p>

<p>MODERATOR’S NOTE:</p>

<p>Article deleted because no link was provided, and more than two sentences were quoted.</p>

<p>Stealth,
First you didn’t include a link to the Zielger article,
[How</a> the Media May Have Framed Joe Paterno](<a href=“http://johnziegler.com/editorials_details.asp?editorial=220]How”>http://johnziegler.com/editorials_details.asp?editorial=220)
Secondly, by cutting and pasting the entire article ( or more than three sentences) you are violating the 'fair use provisions" and copyright provisions that could put CC site at risk.
Zielger is not exactly unbiased in this matter.
From his prior editorial
[Contrary</a> to What You Have Heard, the Freeh Report has Big Problems](<a href=“http://johnziegler.com/editorials_details.asp?editorial=219]Contrary”>http://johnziegler.com/editorials_details.asp?editorial=219)</p>

<p>In another article, he jumps on the fact that Sandusky was acquitted on the charges witnessed by McQueary and says that there were no corroborating witnesses to the other acts other than the victims…I guess the other 9 victims don’t mean anything unless the abuser has an audience…
Lastly, he is factually incorrect. He wrongly jumps on ESPN for a rush to judgment when in fact they were one of the last media to even mention it and many sports fans wondered if they were reluctant to cover the story in order to curry favor or because of their relationship w Penn State. Only when it exploded elsewhere did they have to cover the story.</p>

<p>[HTKT cosmicfish: As is usually the case, it was the cover-up which was most damaging to the university.]</p>

<p>Covering up worked a long time ago, many got away with it except for Richard Nixon-- Now we have computers, where information can be tracked as well as news spreads like wildfire. </p>

<p>I think Paterno, Priests, teachers unions, govt officials, corrupt police enforcement, etc thought that they could punish deviant behavior and spare themselves & their organziations embarrassment. Its wrong and no longer viable and usually does not solve the problem.</p>
