REAL Pittsburgh journalists wouldn't simply rip off the Patriot-News, as Madden did, they would not publish something until they did their own work.
And for Madden to gloat on Twitter that he had the column in April over the P-G and Trib, what a scumbag.
Journalism will be a better place when Madden is no longer a part of it.

Believe me, I didn't post this item to defend Madden. I guess what I'm really wondering is why no Pittsburgh sports reporter or columnist pursued the Sandusky news in April and beyond. At least Madden stood up and called a spade a spade. I only see two mentions of the Sandusky investigation in the PG archive from March/April--a brief story noting the Patriot-News' breaking of the story, and a final paragraph in a Musselman story saying that Paterno wouldn't comment. Again, why no pursuit from the city's major newspaper and, presumably, the Trib?
