CNN: Penn State emails suggest Paterno involved in cover up

He was a leader of men.

I will reiterate that if you in any way support the Penn State football program at this point, you lack certain qualities that make one human.

What if you have been to a candlelight vigil?

I would like to now here from the the Joe Pa defenders. Team bud and a few others, where are you?

I'm sure some copy editor will be along to correct your spelling of "hear".

Holy ****, that's funny, Ruck.

Then your cool, but only if you renew your season tickets, buy a Paterno book, and get a new hoodie.

Fixed. It could get worse with the amount of beer I have in the fridge.

 

[Bubbler]

Congrats, assholes! You tore up the streets of State College in support of a pedophile enabler! Unlike JoePa, the crushing guilt you should have in your hearts will simmer far longer before you take them to your grave.

Mindless cults of personality have consequences like that sometimes.

 

[YGBFKM]

Great post, Bubs.

 

[Bubbler]

While we're on the subject of coaches, Bubbler, your avatar pic makes Karl Malden look like Bear Bryant.

Did Bear Bryant die again this week too?

 

[Uncle.Ruckus]

Bear Bryant is dead? Where the **** is the RIP thread?

Not as long as Junction Boys exists. Wish Dude were around to let us know when it's on again.

Not doubting this cover-up for a second but as far as evidence, I could type an email like that now, take a screengrab and voila.

RIP the smoking-gun real paper trail.

Papers can be faked, often more easily than email can.

Can't wait for Darrell Issa to subpoena Hologram JoePa.

If I was writing a Paterno book, I would not be very happy with this revelation.

I find it odd that this story isn't the lead headline on the CNN website. Or anywhere at all on the CNN website as of this morning.

I wonder if they have it nailed down or not.

I agree. I was wondering if the overnight shift at CNN.com had cold feet or something. ESPN.com now plays it under the headline "Report: PSU officials declined to alert authorities" leaving Paterno entirely out of the headline, even though his involvement is obviously the big news.

 

[Beaker]

I did too, but it's the lead story on CNN.com now.

I did too, but it's the lead story on CNN.com now.

This sentence might reveal the nature of the problem, and why it took so long to get the story out front:

"CNN does not have the purported e-mails. However, the alleged contents were made available to CNN."
