Buckeye down.

Ohio State President Gordon Gee is resigning from his position on July 1. While im never unhappy with anything bad happening in Columbus im a bit puzzled and alot confused by the events which led to his firing. What he said was definately inappropriate and not something that a person should say in his position but the timing and circumstances behind his firing definately bother me. He made the remarks in December and the University said and did nothing about it for 6 months untill a member of the media made his remarks public. The strong arm of political correctness and the social media is now watching all our words and actions like a hawk. More importantly enemies of public figures are lurking in wait to ruin the careers of people they do not like. Media members will tell you that they are simply bringing to light the truth of what is said and done but i think that old Gordo  made some enemies in Columbus and somebody was waiting for just the right moment to slam the door on his career. The more disturbing thought that comes to my mind is that with the increased awareness in social media there will be a hidden suppression of speech that will take away peoples freedom to speak freely and create legitimate and facinating sports stories that I actually might want to read in the newspaper.
