Watch All 22 Uncomfortable Minutes Of The PSU Trustees’ Presser Announcing Joe Paterno’s Dismissal

John Surma, CEO of U.S. Steel and vice chairman of Penn State's Board of Trustees, sat through a hell of a press conference this evening. The gathered media did not practice anything resembling neutrality—wait until after Surma makes the initial statement for things to heat up—and it ended with lots of journalists or unaffiliated angry PSU fans somewhere off camera yelling about "public relations answers" (which, duh) and nearly holding back tears. Surma, somehow, barely even flinched.

We'll update with better video when we have it, but for now, credit goes to PSU ComRadio.
