Is Paterno Getting A Raw Deal?

PITTSBURGH (NewsRadio 1020 KDKA) -- Joe Paterno's firing last night has many wondering why Paterno seems to be facing more public scrutiny for allegedly failing to bring abuse allegations to light than Jerry Sandusky himself, the man actually accused of assaulting children.

NewsRadio 1020 KDKA's Mike Pintek talks with Yahoo! Sports writer Dan Wetzel about the media's increasing focus on Joe Paterno as the scandal continues to unfold. 

Wetzel tells Mike why the nation seems so fixated on the fallout at Penn State and why Paterno might be facing the most scrutiny simply because he's the most famous face involved.

Listen to Mike Pintek every weekday from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. on NewsRadio 1020 KDKA!
