Why is Joe Paterno being tarnished by the media like this?

<p>enfieldacademy said: “It’s like the typical response from parents after being informed that their kid has unexpectedly died. At least in the movies it’s always - you must have the wrong house, or no that can’t be, and so on.
of course, the continued disappearance of their kid eventually gets them to come around. But Paterno didn’t have continued reminders of what had happened.”</p>

<p>Paterno is a senior administrator not a parent. When it comes to an issue as serious as this he he fails to follow through then he should be fired. On our campus administrators are dismissed for far less than Paterno’s mistake.</p>

<p>How many “reminders” do you think someone needs to end sexual abuse? Good lord.</p>
