What media are you referring to? I listen to Philly sports talk radio for about 2 hours every day, and every host and 95% of the callers (many of them PSU alumni) are upset that Paterno wasn't fired sooner. Every newspaper article I've seen has focused more on Paterno's fault than Sandusky's fault. Even the people who you think are saying that Paterno did nothing wrong, for the most part, are just saying that we should wait for more facts to come out before jumping to conclusions. I haven't heard a single person say that they believe Paterno knew what was going on but still think he's blameless. Are they in denial? Maybe. But they're not supporting what you think they're supporting.
