1490:. There is probably nothing in Centre County not tied to Penn State. If you've ever lived there, you know that to be true. Your Corbett article specifically discusses using Joe Paterno as a scapegoat. The words "Penn State" appear in that article about 20 times. It specifically states that Corbett was "raking in cool millions in campaign contributions from Penn State-related benefactees, big wheels and alums." Did you even read the article that you linked? Corbett is also a member of Penn State's board of trustees. That is hardly makes him unrelated to Penn State. Calling Corbett's role a partisan "cheap shot" is strictly your partisan POV. Even with that said, you cannot pull out a few articles on peripheral events related to this scandal and say "see, there are other things that aren't explicitly the univeristy's fault so it can't be titled as such". Such articles to not invalidate the fact that the overwhelming majority of coverage on events and people are at, related to, or involve Penn State. Coincidentally, it is telling that both of the articles that you linked refer to the issue as the "Penn State scandal". This isn't surprising though because almost all media does. 1482:
him. When Penn State's Athletic Director and Senior Vice President are on trial, the focus will be on them. When the civil litigation against Penn State is in full swing, that will be the story. Are we to create separate stub and start-class articles every month for the "Tim Curley perjury scandal" or the "Gary Shultz coverup scandal" or one called the "Penn State riots" and one called the "Graham Spanier resignation" and one called the "Joe Paterno firing" and one called the "Rodney Erickson alumni apology tour" and one called "Board of Trustees Chairman resignation" and one called the "Department of Education Penn State Cleary Act Investigation" or one called the "NCAA Penn State inquiry"? Perhaps those articles will break out naturally in the future, but this article is the parent of all of those issues and is correctly titled to encompass all aspects of the story of the scandal. The focal point is "Penn State" and everything, including future breakout articles, stems from it. There is no way around that.
551:, is referred to by no less than 90% of the national and international media as some variation of the "Penn State Scandal", and absolutely involves more than just Jerry Sandusky's alleged crimes, as the arrest of two high level Penn State officials can attest to. The reason his crimes are a scandal is the institutional coverup that, according to the grand jury report, ranged from the janitors to the highest reaches of the administration, as well as the arrests, suspensions and resignations of some of the most prominent figures at Penn State, not to mention the subsequent fallout including the student riots, civil litigation against the university, and whistle blowers speaking to the culture of coverup and control that has allegedly plagued the institution. The recent attempts by the university's President and PR department to spin this away from the university 2336:
right? Particularly in retrospect. "In bad taste." Like that. But bad jokes certainly happen. They are one of the ways people communicate. At this point of course I see no humor in the "joke" nor do I believe Dowd did; I hope you don't, seriously, either. "Jokes" in the face of a horror one can't see a way to change or challenge are common and informative. Particularly a horror like this which, while close at hand, doesn't necessarily threaten most members of a group. So the joke is a "casual warning shot" for the majority. I see the Sandusky-threat joke as a grim marker of the mindset which seems to have allowed this alleged outrage to fester -- so close but ... -- for years. In the context, now, of Sandusky being tried on charges which would seem to put the horrible truth to the "joke", I don't see citing the "joke" as breaking the policies you've cited.

highest reaches of the administration, as well as the arrests, suspensions and resignations of some of the most prominent figures at Penn State, not to mention the subsequent fallout including the student riots, civil litigation against the university, and whistle blowers speaking to the culture of coverup and control that has allegedly plagued the institution. There are multiple ongoing investigations of the university by the FBI, the Department of Education, the state of Pennsylvania, NCAA inquiries, and on and on, not to mention multiple lawsuits against the university not just from alleged victims, but from to the media attempting to access information through open record laws as well as insurance companies alleging university negligence in its handling of the situation. Even the Second Mile charity has been reported to be "

The fact is that the Freeh Report was commissioned by the PSU trustees and is the official record of the incident. To "argue" about the motivations of the trustees in commissioning it is to stray into POV: the trustees commissioned it, Freeh assembled it, and the trustees let it stand. Those are verifiable facts. The Paterno family did not accept the conclusions of the report. They created their own investigation and selected the investigators (the two primary verifiable facts) who could hardly be called "independent" since they were given the commission to clear Paterno's name by his family, a point easily sourcable from RS and that (as above) would be one of many absolutely essential critiques of the Paterno family's effort should any edit attempt to give it equal weight to the Freeh Report.
2023:, this page has to use a self-descriptive title or be deleted by an admin/crat at one point. I suggest you start thinking of a new title. If you think you have enough factual material that centers on Penn State, I can suggest a self-descriptive title "Penn State alleged culpability of Jerry Sandusky sex crimes" or something along those lines. Of course, that means we another self-descriptive title "Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse allegations" to hold the "epicenter" materials. Whether its one page or separate pages, I don't care. Even if you changed the title, if you mention "Penn State sex abuse scandal" on this page, google will list it as a top hit so don't worry about your preferred title being forgotten or disassociated from the alleged "whiteashing". TTFN. — 3050:
incidents allegedly took place at Penn State (note that the JS was not indicted on any of those charges), but that the majority took place elsewhere and the fact that JS was a FORMER coach at Penn State, but worked at the Second Mile during the entire time period, makes this Topic erroneous, and sensationalized. As the leadership from Penn State who stand accused have NOT been indicted yet...and it appears that all charges may be dropped...this again is misleading. This we know is true: Sandusky worked at the Second Mile the ENTIRE time that he was abusing children. ALL of his victims were groomed through this organization...NONE through Penn State.

refer the matter to Pennsylvania State Police. At the heart of the scandal is the power granted to the University to provide government services on its campus, i.e., the power to hire and supervise a police department. The power and right of the university to operate the campus police had been challenged in court unsuccessfully. (See Rogalski v. PSU, Middle District of Pennsylvania 1988-89) The difference is that when a state actor like a municipal corporation, i.e. State College, fails to properly investigate a crime, it is protected by sovereign immunity from legal liability, but a state affiliated university, has no such immunity.
1787:". The media initially came up with "Penn State sex abuse scandal" to refer to scandal for whatever reason but it is not necessarily an accurate name. Did you check the hits google returned? Excluding this wikipedia page, the top twenty pages of hits are news articles and editorials dated around November 2011. Naturally, there are more articles linking back to those primary articles. Just because the term had a headstart, does not make it right. At this time, the media consensus on what to call the scandal is somewhat in flux. If you checked google news instead, you would know that. 1699:. The individual crimes, which are more than just Sandusky's, are only components of one giant scandal all linked to protecting the university. To take a page from your book, feel free to start a break-out article more thoroughly covering Jerry Sandusky's alleged crimes or the crimes of Tim Curly or Gary Schultz. The vast majority of articles and reports specifically talk about events in the context of Penn State, even in spite of Penn State's PR campaign. Here are specific articles discussing specifically why it is a "Penn State scandal" and not a "Jerry Sandusky scandal": 2444:(not as strong as a tone) to it. Your very shift from this talk page to my user page, in this context, may speak to a discomfort with addressing the issue directly (in turn revealed in, may I call it overcompensation? (talk-down-ness), there). I venture into such analysis with some trepidation but this is after all personal all around, wouldn't you agree? Deeply personal events in others' lives; and our personal judgment calls. And feelings: I was stung by "snarky"; you were stung, maybe, by "tone". I trust you'll consider this, also, as/if we go forward. Cheers. 1532: 1829:". Am I being difficult here? Or should I just escalate / defer this issue to the crats? Between you and me, I think PSU BOT and Corbett are busy CYA on this, especially after claiming that Baldin was only representing Penn State not Curley and Schultz at the Grand Jury hearing, but that is just my opinion not a statement of fact, which cannot be incorporated into wikipedia. To me, the cover-up is just another case of rich elites covering up for another rich elite, no matter how foul. BTW, you might want to check out how wikipedia handles the following: 3391:
into the extent and causes of the scandal with the aim of determining and assigning blame. There is a world of difference between such a report and a critique commissioned by the family of one of the complicit parties, the purpose of which from its creation was not an objective probe into issues of guilt and responsibility but rather a pre-determined attempt at vindication of that party. Its very purpose thus disallows it as any kind of RS, and the prior edit here did an adequate job of summarizing it without giving it undue weight.
1394:. Focus about the subject matter and beat it to death. The subject is Jerry Sandusky and his alleged sex with multiple male children, so call the scandal "Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal". If you are really hell-bent on Penn State, you are welcome to create a page for "Penn State (mis)handling of Jerry Sandusky alleged child sex abuse" or something. Everyone should have an equal opportunity to be part of the Sandusky cover-up, not just those affliated to Penn State. TTFN. — 2071:
up to be, why didn't the AG charge him as the "ring-leader" for the cover-up? The legal case for the cover-up is falling apart BTW, with the death of Paterno, since he was actually (gasp) the cooperating witness for the prosecution. If you insist, you need to establish "Joe Paterno is Penn State" first (possibly in Joe Paterno's article if not here) with indisputable facts, not with editorial opinions. You may have to do the same with "The Second Mile is Penn State". o.0

of the mountains of criticism that it in its turn received. What I would not like, though, would be to place the Paterno family report as co-equal to the Freeh report or to have the article appear to be trying to vindicate Paterno. It's a fine line indeed between reporting what the family report said and presenting it as of itself factual or accurate. I have a fairly intense work schedule over the next few days but will return to this ASAP. regards,

you may have noted my distinguishing between reporting and opinion. Yes, she's an opinion writer now. But she's a reporter at base. And what I was citing was a piece of reporting. Maybe not reporting that would make it in a "regular news" story, but reporting. And my trust of her reporting is strong, here. In other words, I don't think she or her sources are "making it up". That is an important test you both seem to be ignoring.
1126:). As such, I feel using Google or any search engine to establish "common use" for new terms is circular and asinine. Then again, when I googled in "Penn State sex abuse scandal", most of the top hits link back to older news articles and editorials (and the actual name used in the hits did not match the "exact" search), so a web search may be misleading. I did Google news search instead for the past month: 867:- Google "Joe Paterno sex abuse scandal", and I get ~2,610,000 results. But it's not about him, nor is it about Penn State. Knowledge is neutral. While we can blindly follow sources, redirects from other likely searches are cheap. Our policy says NPOV. We shouldn't be drawing with the big crayon just because it's big; we're trying to stay inside the lines we've drawn for ourselves. 2273:, with the comment it "add no informational content". It bore directly on JSandusky. Yes, it's a different kind of knowledge. Yes, it was reported in the context of an opinion column. But for me it added a layer of useful knowledge about both the individual and the surroundings/context of his activities -- in other words, information, and of solid credential. Any thoughts? 3121: 299:
within the links of the university and with its own sidebar as it's a major part of the school's history - this is fine. However, a redirect from "Penn State sex abuse scandal" to "Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal" with the latter as the title is more appropriate given the singular nature of the story. Please consider this- it'd be greatly appreciated.
2407:, Jtalledo, and do find you a thoughtful editor from glancing sightings. However, I hope you'll still appreciate that an editor -- me -- cannot help but take personally the disrespectful, I'd have to call it, dismissal of my best estimation of a source. There are all too few, from before McQueary and on, to speak out forcefully and bravely (well, as one 1821:

Then again, so does Jerry Sandusky, so this page should really be called "Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse allegations" with another section (or new page) for "Penn State alleged cover-up of Jerry Sandusky sex crimes". Just like
3444:
You could just as easily argue that the board of trustees report was commissioned to clear the name of Penn State at large and place the blame on Joe Paterno. Has anyone else read both reports? It is also unclear how you can say that it is biased when it was undertaken by 3 independent investigators.
3251:
As a professor at Penn State, I really find it offensive to refer to this as a "scandal." This is a euphemism for what actually occurred: sex crimes and their cover-up. I do not have any idea how to address this, and I do not know where in the criminal process Spanier and co. are. But the tendency
2888:
There is not enough information about the Freeh report, especially criticism of it. Why is it that the conclusions of the report are not supported by the information presented in it? How can the NCAA use this report as its sole source to bypass its own procedures to punish the wrong people and have

MDowd has proven herself to be willing and able to speak out forcefully and bravely (and insightfully) and has certainly earned my trust to a degree. And
1481:
First, as noted above and you fail to address that the vast majority of media coverage and stories have focused on Penn State. Of course the focuses of the story will change as news unfolds but Penn State is and will remain at the center of the scandal. When Sandusky is at trial, the focus will be on

So, I learned something new about the Ripper. But, my point remains the same.

But, the solution is to find the most objective means of naming the article. And, I have yet to see anyone provide
908:
No offense, but this argument is a pretty clear indication of your bias in this matter. The fact that you feel "Paterno's moral and professional culpability was next to nothing" is yet another opinion that should have no bearing on this article. Again, the google search I pointed to above is thus far
462:
These people aren't necessarily "accusers" -- they are not plaintiffs in a case, but witnesses to a state prosecution. Adding "alleged" before victim is ok by me. (unless referring to grand jury report, where "Victim 1" etc is fine). BTW, I heard Sandusky's new defense is that he was teaching these
298:
Why is this called the Penn State sex abuse scandal? One man is the central figure in this story, and not the university- the entire school did not participate in his actions and you are condemning 3,000,000+ educated readers of your website with this title. It's perfectly unbiased to keep the page
3294:
I must disagree in turn with you. In the US media, the term scandal is most often applied to sex crimes; the fall-out over the shooting of Trayvon Martin is not referred to on Knowledge as a "scandal." If Knowledge is not concerned about how using the term "scandal" influences readers' perceptions
1866:
Wow, now Knowledge is tainting the jury pool! I guess just like 100s of local, national and international media outlets around the globe, dozens of them linked above. That may be one of the most ridiculous statements I've ever read, right up there with "media is no less biased than PSU PR". But what

Third, you really want to give special weight to month-long list of google hits that still doesn't come out in your favor? Well how about we list the major media that currently categorizes their collection of these stories under a variation of the "Penn State scandal" title, like what this Knowledge
957:
NO! This isn't an objective question about what WE think it should be called. It's what the general media calls it. If you want to call that a 'popularity argument', fine. The same can be said for why we allow citations to the New York Times, but don't allow people to cite Bobby Joe's Blog Only Read

The immediate and common thread between all parties involved is Jerry Sandusky, not just Penn State. Yes, Penn State was a common thread for most of the persons involved, but Jerry Sandusky is the person around whom the entire scandal centers. I am maintaining that Penn State is unnecessarily broad,

Many of the places I see the word victim are specifically refering to the grand jury report which refered to "Victim 1" and Victim 2" and so on as an identifier. In places where it's just standard prose writing I'd agree with you, but not anywhere where it's clearly and specifically refering to the
3531:
Interesting links. As you see, I rv'd the full restoration on the basis of lack of consensus for it - but that does not mean we can't work together to improve the section. I would be amenable to a careful expansion of the Paterno family report discussion, as long as the expansion also included some
3461:
I believe that you have expressed the difference between the two reports clearly here. You note that an editor "could just as easily argue" a point - but such "argument" is antithetical to the very purpose of Knowledge articles, which is to present the verifiable facts about the article's subject.
3424:
There should be no more than a sentence or two about the Paterno family report. It played no part in the investigation or its outcome. It's a biased report with only one purpose, clearing the name of Joe Paterno. It belongs on the Paterno page, not here. If it was placed here, than it would only be

I added Category:Child sexual abuse to the Big Jock page. I thought that was enough to link the two (to each other and to others at other institutions). I think the "football" (two kinds) link is a bit attenuated. To have just the song as See also and no other CSA events seems sort of out of place;

MaroonGray123, I am not from Penn State so please excuse me for not emphatizing with their delusion that Joe Paterno is no more than a subordinate who escalated a possible sex crime to his superiors. Think about it from my perspective: if Paterno is as powerful as his legion of fans/haters make him

The word "open" has come back to me in thinking about this all since my last (long) entry. Yes, the phrase "open joke" is a common phrase. But MDowd didn't use it cavalierly; in a snarky way; I don't believe. She had reason to believe, from her source(s) that the joke was relatively widespread and

I appreciate the responses. Neither of you seem to look at the "information zone" from the point of view of, say, a vulnerable 13-year-old-boy or the, say, passing college sophomore or even mid-level coach (all potential objects of or propagators of the "joke"). This is what I'd call a "bad joke",

I agree with this. I think the treatment of the Paterno family-commissioned report was covered adequately in the previous edit. The Freeh Report was commissioned by the PSU Board of Trustees and as such carries with it the weight of official status. Freeh's investigation was just that: an inquiry

I disagree. "Scandal" is often applied to criminal behavior and refers not just to the behavior itself but to all of the fall-out, such as media coverage, criminal and civil repercussions, damage to reputation, and so forth. I think it's a great way to describe the Penn State/Sandusky debacle and

Finally got back to this this morning. Someone beat me to it. I notice there are a two other references to Dowd. Though I haven't read either of those two columns, their use doesn't appear to be as ill-conceived as the Horror Story one. But the reference to her June 19 column appears to be a

From reading the Freeh Report, the State College Police Dept. was involved in the investigation of Sandusky in May, 1998 (page 45). Despite the fact that the State College Police Dept. had jurisdiction over the campus, it declined to pursue criminal action against Sandusky, nor did it apparently

Dowd put her name on it. I'll try to look at the previous debate on her other inclusion(s). I'd seen she was already cited; thanks for the debate citation. But in the "joke" context she has the credibility and standing to report it. If there's a rebuttal, that too of course would be allowed. But

A critique of the report should be addressed under the heading of that report. A subheading covers a section of the topic, in this case the Penn State child sex abuse scandal. The critique is of the report, not of the topic itself, therefore giving it a section of its own would grant it
2554:
I disagree, no media link has been made between the two cases so we do not need to either. Also linking to a football clubs song is not appropriate. That should not be readded to this article without sources making the connection or comparing the situation, even then it is not needed.
1902:. If you actually get outside of the area, you would be aware that everyone, all over the country, refers to this as the "Penn State scandal", and your opinion about a Board of Trustees coverup just further drives home the appropriateness of the title beyond common name applicability. 884:- I think it is better for the name to focus on the "point of origin", and then state the people and entities affected by the scandal. Otherwise, the existing name may unnecessarily give the presumption of guilt to others that may or may not have nothing to do with the case. Read the 725:
